Red sun, red sun over paradise
Red sun, red sun over paradise

Golden rays of the glorious sunshine
Sending down such a blood-red light
Now, the animals slowly retreat to the shadows, out of sight
Arid winds blow across the mountains
Giving flight to the birds of prey
In the distance machines come to transform Eden, day by day

Only love is with us now
Something warm and pure
Find the peace within ourselves
No need for a cure

When the wind is slow, when the fire's hot
The vulture waits to see what rots
Oh, how pretty, all the scenery
This is nature's sacrifice
When the air blows through with a brisk attack
The reptile tail ripped from its back

When the sun sets
We will not forget the red sun over paradise

Red sun
