Desert Moon

Lyrics

"Is this the train to Desert Moon?" was all she said
 But I knew I'd heard that stranger's voice before
 ♪
 I turned to look into her eyes, but she moved away
 
 She was standing in the rain
 Trying hard to speak my name
 They say first love never runs dry
 ♪
 The waiter poured our memories into tiny cups
 We stumbled over words we longed to hear
 ♪
 We talked about the dreams we'd lost, or given up
 When a whistle cut the night
 ♪
 And shook silence from our lives
 As the last train rolled toward the dune
 ♪
 Those summer nights when we were young
 ♪
 We bragged of things we'd never done
 We were dreamers, only dreamers
 ♪
 And in our haste to grow too soon
 We left our innocence on Desert Moon
 We were dreamers, only dreamers
 ♪
 On Desert Moon
 On Desert Moon
 
 On Desert Moon
 ♪
 Desert Moon
 ♪
 I still can hear the whisper of the summer night
 It echoes in the corners of my heart
 ♪
 The night we stood and waited for the desert train
 ♪
 All the words we meant to say
 All the chances swept away
 
 Still remain on the road to the dune
 Those summer nights when we were young
 
 We bragged of things we'd never done
 We were dreamers, only dreamers
 ♪
 Moments pass, and time moves on
 
 But dreams remain for just as long
 As there's dreamers, all the dreamers
 On Desert Moon
 On Desert Moon
 On Desert Moon
 ♪
 Desert Moon
