In the Desert

In the desert there’s a thousand things
I want to say to you
Stretched across the river rock
Where the waters once flowed through
The sunlight on our faces
The pictures rolling by
In the desert there’s a thousand things
I want to say to you
You and I
Could find our way
I was a long-shot baby
But that’s okay
We’re on open road
Don’t cost no fare
There’s gold in the city
But we just don’t care
Close your eyes
And meet me there
In the desert there’s a thousand things
I want to say to you
Stretched across the river rock
Where the waters once flowed through
The sunlight on our faces
The pictures rolling by
In the desert there’s a thousand things
I want to say to you
You and I
Could stay the night
We took a wrong turn baby
But we got it right
You were an open book
And I turned your page
Baby I don’t want
To go back that way
Close your eyes
Close your eyes
And drift away
In the desert there’s a thousand things
I want to say to you
Stretched across the river rock
Where the waters once flowed through
The sunlight on our faces
Look at everything that’s come and gone
In the desert there’s a thousand things
I want to say to you
Do-do do-do do
Do-do do-do do
