Tea In The Sahara Lyrics - Sting & Police
Review The Song (2)
My sisters and I
Have this wish before we die
And it may sound strange
As if our minds are deranged
Please don't ask us why
Beneath the sheltering sky
We have this strange obsession
You have the means in your possession
We want our tea in the Sahara with you
We want our tea in the Sahara with you
The young man agreed
He would satisfy their need
So they danced for his pleasure
With a joy you could not measure
They would wait for him here
The same place every year
Beneath the sheltering sky
Across the desert he would fly
Tea in the Sahara with you
Tea in the Sahara with you
The sky turned to black
Would he ever come back?
They would climb a high dune
They would pray to the moon
But he'd never return
So the sisters would burn
As their eyes searched the land
With their cups full of sand
Tea in the Sahara with you
Tea in the Sahara with you
Tea in the Sahara with you
Tea in the Sahara with you

small error big change of context | Reviewer: jasp | 1/12/13
The removal of the word "still" from the sentence "with their cups full of sand" obliterates the subtle concept that the wish was never really granted, except as they once believed.
Tea with the Police | Reviewer: Laura J | 12/16/12
I just love this song. It's got a really simple sounding beat to it, which lets the haunting music and lyrics speak for themselves. Ever since I was a kid I've been a fan of the Police. Even now I'm still finding amazing songs that I haven't heard. It's just pure, real music that will last for generations to come!
