Lyrics
NEDA
Neda,
The desert wind's blowing
Over sands that run through the hourglass
And the sun, that's setting on Alborz
Turns the day to dreams of a princess
In veiled abaya.
Neda
You are freedom's daughter
Dance on 'til you find the light.
Neda
Love is oil and water
Summer, hot Iranian nights.
The stars over Gisha
Persian moon... an arabesque tapestry
It was a time for lovers and dreamers
In your smile, a song that could set us free,
I saw your picture today.
And Neda,
You are freedom's daughter
Dance on, 'til you find the light
Neda
Love is oil and water
Summer, hot Iranian nights.
Oh, but who was right,
When they took your life?
(Guitar Break)
Neda,
The desert wind's blowing
Over sands that run through the hourglass.
Neda,
I can hear your laughter
Sometimes, I still hear you cry
Neda
When I see the heart break
Neda
I still wonder why.
Neda,
You are freedom's daughter
Dance on, 'til you find the light
Neda,
Love is oil and water
Summer, hot Iranian nights.
