When I'm cracked and dry you ease my pain
When my aching body crumbles
Wanting of a peacful refrain
I whisper to you softly
I'm the desert you're the rain
Chorus:
It happend long ago
When I was just a boy of seventeen
You were a woman schooled in love and finer things
You took me by the hand and we danced through
Each others dreams
And I whispered to you softly
I'm the desert, you're the rain
When my firebrand soul lashes out in vain
The sky opens up and you cool me again
When my windswept mind cannot seem to find the way
I whisper to you softly
I'm the desert you're the rain
Chorus:
It happend long ago
When I was just a boy of seventeen
You were a woman schooled in love and finer things
You took me by the hand and we danced through
Each others dreams
And I whispered to you softly
I'm the desert, you're the rain
I'm the desert, you're the rain When I'm cracked and dry you ease my pain When my aching body crumbles Wanting of a peacful refrain I whisper to you softly I'm the desert you're the rain Chorus: It happend long ago When I was just a boy of seventeen You were a woman schooled in love and finer things You took me by the hand and we danced through Each others dreams And I whispered to you softly I'm the desert, you're the rain When my firebrand soul lashes out in vain The sky opens up and you cool me again When my windswept mind cannot seem to find the way I whisper to you softly I'm the desert you're the rain Chorus: It happend long ago When I was just a boy of seventeen You were a woman schooled in love and finer things You took me by the hand and we danced through Each others dreams And I whispered to you softly I'm the desert, you're the rain Explain Request ×
