Desert Wind

Lauren O'Connell

Compositor: Kate Wolf

There’s a wind blowing down the canyon
So hot and dry, the rocks turn red
Shade grows thin and shrinks to nothing
As the Sun climbs overhead

What can I say; you said it all
Your words ride on the desert wind
Telling me about tomorrow
And how a heart can love again

Did you see the stars as you lay sleeping?
As they crossed the midnight sky
I could hear my own heart beating
In the stillness of the night

What can I say, you said it all
Your words ride on the desert wind
Telling me about tomorrow
And how a heart can love again

It’s all alone with the earth and sky
The hours are long, the days go slow
Your lovin’ way, like the wind reminds me
There is so much that I do not know

What can I say, you said it all
Your words ride on the desert wind
Telling me about tomorrow
And how a heart can love again

What can I say; you said it all
Your words ride on the desert wind
Telling me about tomorrow
And how a heart can love again
