Sahara Night (F.R. David)

Sahara Night
Activity Put in Order
Activity Put in Order

Music from the 80's. The French Tunissian born singer Eli Robert Fitoussi, known as F.R. David, became world famous with his hit Words in 1982, after some time being part of Vangelis. Sahara Night is also one of his greatest international hits.

Warning: there are a few -s sounds that simply shouldn't be there. We removed them from the transcription. Also when he says "the hold he had on me" the tense doesn't fit the rest of the lyrics because he is talking about all this experience in the present, so we dared to put "it has on me". And "cease" should be "ceases" (3rd person singular).

Spirit of the sands
At the failing lights
Between moon and sun
Where no one belongs
When the blue gets dark
On vast and empty land
 
Fever's so high
Sahara night
In the desert fields
Makes me wanna shout
 
You may hear the sounds
Of a tribal dance
Music from afar
Listen to the wind
Bringing to your ears
Coming from the heights
 
Sahara, Sahara night
Fever's so high
In the desert fields
Oooooh oooooh ooooooh
Sahara night
Makes me wanna shout
 
And stars screen
The hold he had on me
With its weight of fear
I now realise
The awful mystery of space
Oooooh oooooh ooooooh
 
Gentle is the breeze
I love to watch the sky
Laying on the ground
Soothing my mind
Smiling at the stars
Hope it never cease
 
Sahara night
Sahara, Sahara night
In the desert fields
Makes me wanna shout
Fever's so high
Oooooh oooooh ooooooh
 
Oh, Sahara night
Ooh, Makes me feel
Oooooh oooooh ooooooh
Makes me feel so right
Sahara night
Makes me feel
Makes me feel so right
