Desert Sunrise

Lyrics

a desert sunrise, you warm my soul
 painting me in shades of clay
 covering me whole
 and I'm a lizard, sunbathing in your radiance
 Oh, I come 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 rising
 on the horizon
 bringing light into the day
 and I'm coasting on your rays
 when I awoke, you spoke through the mist of the mystic bliss
 casting shadows
 on all my dismal yesterdays
 do you remember that you told me, darling
 that I was so real
 I tell you all my tears for you are real
 and we'll cross that bridge again some day
 I know we will
 I hope we will
 desert sunset, a lullaby
 if I could give it all to you
 if you'd only let me try
 sing so sweetly, it's my only wish
 music drips from your lips like sweet sips of a summer's kiss
 summer raindrops are precious, tongues twist
 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
 I know darling
 I could be so good to you
 I see you rising, on the horizon
 bringing light into the day
 and I'm coasting on your rays
 when I awoke and you spoke through the mist of a mystic bliss
 casting shadows
 on all my dismal yesterdays
 do you remember that you told me, darling
 that I was so real
 I tell you all my tears for you are real
 we'll cross that bridge again some day
 I know we will
 I hope we will
 desert moonrise, into the night
 before we lay our heads
 I wish to walk under the splendorous starlight
 sing so sweetly, it's the sweetest sound
 and I've 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
