"There's a wind blowing down the desert so hot and dry the rocks turn red.
Shade grows thin and shrinks to nothing as the sun climbs over head.
Did you see the stars while you were sleeping as the crossed the midnight sky
I could hear my own heart beating in the stillness of the desert night.

Your words ride on the desert wind telling me about tomorrow..."

(Kate Wolf/Desert Wind)

"After two days in the desert sun

My skin began to turn red

After three days in the desert fun

I was looking at a river bed

And the story it told of a river that flowed

Made me sad to think it was dead"

...and it's good to be out of the rain.

In the desert, you can remember your name

coz there ain't no other one to give you no pain...
