Anastasia woman in the cold of the desert night The fire in the cave is burning hard and bright Three days her lover hunted on the plains She never knew if he would ever come home again So she could feed the flame of love and then Hold him in her arms again Make the demons all depart Heal the wounds that break the heart A love that lasts is hard to find Like the harmony in an old design But the love of a good woman The love a good woman Stands the test of time Woman on a cliff at the break of a winters day A baby at her breast and her lover far away Watches the horizon for the curving sails to rise Across the water and through the stormy skies He returns at last from the battle field Where d**h has marched with a Christian shield She will make the demons all depart Heal the wounds that break the heart A love that lasts is hard to find Like the harmony in an old design But the love of a good woman The love a good woman Stands the test of time
The brittle will be broken And the supple will survive Men are born to fight in armor Women born to stay alive Behind every veil of tears There is a sister of a thousand years High in a canyon where the city meets the stars My face against the window and my dreams that reach so far Back to the women whose spirits so fierce and fine Whose warriors fought for a love like yours and mine Oh we are all the guardians And everyday we start again To make the demons all depart Heal the wounds that break the heart A love that lasts is hard to find Like the harmony in an old design But the love of a good woman The love a good woman Stands the test of time A love that lasts is hard to find Like the harmony in an old design But the love of a good woman The love a good woman Stands the test of time A love that lasts is hard to find Like the harmony in an old design But the love of a good woman The love a good woman Stands the test of time
