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
