Horslips - Sunburst Lyrics

Horslips
Dancehall Sweethearts
Sunburst
I come down like an eagle
An eagle from far on the sea
Won't you set me free

Time spins down to a standstill
My hands filled with all I desire
I can feel your fire

I steal into your city
invading the sleepless insane
Time can't slip away

Light streams out from your doorway
Your stairway is waiting to climb
When your sunburst's smiling

Sun shining on her wings
Keeps her happy makes her sing
but the talons flash upon the things
he needs to keep her smiling

Grey and silent from above
it's moving fast but not quite fast enough
definitely will, you will love
take me to your sunburst

Daylight creeps in your window
you know all the promises made
cannot be betrayed

you wait for me to take you
and make you a hunter like me
and we're flying free

I come down like an eagle......
