The palace guards are all sleeping
Their fires burn into the night
There's a threat of rain on the dark horizon
And all that's left is a quarter moon of light

Cm7
He climbs up through the darkness
No weapon but his surprise
The greatest thief in the high Sahara

Cm7
He was as gentle as the night wind
As no lover had been before
And the rings she wore for her bridegroom
