lapislantern Such a beautiful song, makes me feel so immersed and uplifted, not to mention the strange compulsion I always get to sway heavily from side to side as I listen to it

lyrics

Arabian Sea

Red dust on the broadleaf tree
Red sun through the haze laid its mark on me
God’s red mark sits between his eyes
Cows on the road - will we get there alive

From the beach to the mountains on the winding road
On her henna-stained hands old stories unfold
But I left my guitar on the train and I had to go back to the town again

And

My friend the Arabian Sea
Cool my feet, wash me clean
My friend you understand
Won’t you please

Guide me

The beggar at the station’s only got one hand
His legs are twisted and he can’t stand
God’s mark on the woman with the skin disease
Whose bed every night is a sack on the street
The blind man won’t move away from the door
I gave him a dollar but he wants much more
The kids all smile and they want to shake hands
And I’m touched by the love of the family man
