desert sky dream beneath the desert sky
the rivers run but soon run dry
we need new dreams tonight
desert rose dreamed i saw a desert rose
dress torn in ribbons and in bows
like a siren she calls to me
sleep comes like a drug in god’s country
sad eyes crooked crosses in god’s country
set me alight we’ll punch a hole right through the night
every day the dreamers die to see what’s on the other side
she is liberty and she comes to rescue me
hope faith her vanity
the greatest gift is gold
sleep comes like a drug in god’s country
sad eyes crooked crosses in god’s country
naked flame she stands with a naked flame
i stand with the sons of cain
burned by the fire of love
burned by the fire of love
