In the evening
Look to the desert sky
And you will hear them
Lonesome coyotes cry
And you will see me
Searching the cracked earth
For what will remind me
Of a lost
Little
Girl
She and I once found it
All lit up by the moon
So bold and fragile
My baby's wedding boon
But like those petals
We were pulled apart
So I took my baby
To the desert
Where I broke her little heart
Where are you my desert rose? I will find you
No one out here knows where you grow
But I will find you
Where are you my desert rose? Rose
Desert rose
Now when I wake up
My body is drenched in sweat
And I hear her voice call
Out from the desert heat
So I go searching'
For what I'm afraid to find
A little rose there
Growing' out of the ground where my baby laid down and died
Now when I wake up
My body is drenched in sweat
And I hear her voice call
Out from the desert heat
And I go searching'
For what I'm afraid to find
A little rose there
Growing' out of the ground where my baby laid down and died
