Desert Rain

DESERT RAIN (4:38)
Jim Pipkin:BMI

Desert rain - golden light against a purple sky
Storm from rolling forward
In a curtain two miles high
Pourin' down and washin' all the dust from tired eyes
Good to feel it on my face again
Desert rain

Desert rain
Creosote perfume rides on the wind
Water splashin' off the roof like laughter from a friend
Thunderclaps so close that yiou can feel them on your skin
Lightning flashes burn into the brain
Desert rain

Desert rain
To keep my hat I hold it in my hand
Raindrops punchin' craters big as dollars in the sand
Puffs of dust jump up just to be knocked back down again
Brings a pleasure to my heart that's almost pain
Desert rain

Desrt rain
Wind chimes blowin' ragtime on the breexe
Birds fluff up their feathers in the poloverde trees
No place next to Paradise that I would rather be
Thank dancin' round like someone gone insane
In desert rain
