The Desert In Bloom 2:50

The Lyrics

There's nothing as dry as the desert
With it's merciless sun beating down
The leaves all roll in to thorns
The rivers run deep underground

There's no place that I'd rather be
Than the desert after the rain
When the clouds roll aside, the skies open wide
And I know I will see you again

The desert's in bloom and here we are
In the late afternoon, just ahead of the stars
And the bright yellow blossoms
Spread their subtle perfume

The time that we share is precious and rare
As the desert in bloom

After the flowers have fallen
And only their memory remains
Our love will survive, we'll hold it inside
Like the cactus holds each drop of rain

The desert's in bloom and here we are
In the late afternoon, just ahead of the stars
And the bright yellow blossoms
Spread their subtle perfume

The love that we share is precious and rare
As the desert in bloom

The love that we share is precious and rare
As the desert in bloom
