A desert sunrise, you warm my soul
painting me in shades of clay, covering me whole.
And I'm a lizard, sun bathing in
your radiance. Oh I call you out of hiding.
So sweet, so sweet you are.
If I could only have a taste, wrap my lips around your flavor.
Just because you are you, just because you are,
So beautiful...

And I've been waiting all this life, in the company of one,
and I know I am young but I don't want to be alone.
If you could only just, consider the two of us,
and I know darling I could be so good to you.

I see you risin', upon the horizon,
bringin' light into the day and I am, coastin' on your rays.
When I awoke you spoke through the mist of a misty bliss,
casting shadows, on all my dismal yesterdays.
Do you remember that you told me darlin',
that I was so real? I tell you all my tears for you are real.
And we'll cross that bridge again someday.

I know we will, I hope we will.
Use chords from intro
A Desert sunset, a lullaby.
If I could give it all to you, if you'd only let me try.
You sing so sweetly, its my only wish.
Music drips from your lips like sweet sips of a summer's kiss (summer raindrops)
so precious, Tongues twist.
Repeat From Above)
Repeat From Above)
Use chords from intro
Desert moonrise, into the night.
Before we lay our heads to rest, I wish to walk under the splendorous starlight.
Sing so sweetly, its the sweetest sound,
and Ive become weak in the knees, and I drop down and kiss the ground.
And all my cares, lie far below.
In this earth I wish to die, in this hearth my fire grows.
