Stranglers lyrics - The Raven

album: The Raven (1979)
album: Apollo Revisited (2003)
genre:

Fly straight with perfection 
Find me a new direction 
You never realised the things they said 
We'll never realise until we're dead 

The ebony embittered souls of children 
We'll seek another way before too long 
But will you stop my wind before I'm gone 

And when you find me all alone 
Your world has never been my own 

And when you find me 
And when you find me all alone 
Your world has never been my own 

My friend you're black and when you fly you're wild 
I am white sometimes I behave just like a child 
The northern seas are cold but they're our own 
We'll sail your southern seas before too long 

When I was a viking 
My friend he was the raven
