Desert Wind

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 while you were sleeping              as they crossed the midnight sky?               could hear my own heart beating          in the stillness of the night.   (Chorus) It’s all alone with the earth and sky       the nights are long the days go slow.            Your loving way like the wind reminds me         there is so much that I don’t know.         (Chorus)
