lyrics

It’s been a long time
And I looked too hard behind
I hated the horizon
As it swallowed up my eyes.

The desert hides the oasis
The night dislocates it’s jaw
The stars shine out in black beauty.
The water throws back the moon
To the easy sky.

While I’m out on the plain
I meet a desert angel
I wash the dust off her feet
She says we all have a story to tell

The desert hides the oasis
The night dislocates it’s jaw
The stars shine out in black beauty.
While water throws back the moon
To the easy sky.

I hope I get what I need
I hope I’ve found the salt of the earth
If I know the value of everything
I can’t decide what it’s worth

Now everything is louder
Messages are everywhere
I see in sharp relief
Love stands out here

The desert hides the oasis
The night dislocates it’s jaw
The stars shine out in black beauty.
The water throws back the moon
To the easy sky.
