Born in England, religious raised

A hazy dream, the world to face

Indifferent to joy and pain

No measuring, never ending games

Ride, only ride

On the wings of the desert storm

And your pride, burning pride

Its hunger's fed when yourself is gone

He tired to join the army then

He was denied, they had too much men

He studied then the ancient times

Digging up relics and signs

Ride, only ride

On the wings of the desert storm

And your pride, burning pride

Its hunger's fed when yourself is gone

Karkamish was where it all began

He joined on armies' service then

The Suez-Channel was to defend

The Turkish force had to be banned

Ride, only ride

On the wings of the desert storm

And your pride, burning pride

Its hunger's fed when yourself is gone

The ghost, the gallant rider

On the edge of the desert storm

A miracle written in the sand

The desert plains for eternity

Feisal was the only chance

To join the tribes to cross Turkish plans

Aqaba was the mighty key

To end the siege, to make them free

Ride, only ride

On the wings of the desert storm

And your pride, burning pride

Its hunger's fed when yourself is gone

The ghost, the gallant rider

On the edge of the desert storm

A miracle written in the sand

The desert plains for eternity

"I will go if you will go to cross the deadly plains."

"I am here, the world to show what you are able to face."

The sand is grinding the face

Dust is clouding their trace

The sun burns out their mind

Slowly, like sand rules the time

Wing of dark, vultures fly

The wind, the last battle cry

Aqaba

He lived his life of tragedy without a home

No place to flee

Distracted soul caught in its trance, from the start

Without a chance

He tried to free Arabia from its siege

But he'd gone to far

He paid his price on the desert plains

He'd lost his soul, he'd lost his trace

Ride, only ride

On the wings of the desert storm

And your pride, burning pride

Its hunger's fed when yourself is gone

The ghost, the gallant rider

On the edge of the desert storm

A miracle written in the sand

The desert plains for eternity

The ghost, the gallant soldier

A splitted soul gone with the wind

His mind was bound to the western world

His heart belongs to the desert plains eternally!
