Lyrics of 'Desert Sunrise' by Brett Dennen

A desert sunrise, you warm my soul
Painting me in shades of clay
Covering me whole
Oh, I'm a lizard
Sunbathing in
Your radiance
Oh I'm crawling out of hiding
So sweet so sweet you are
If i could only have a taste
Rap my lips around your flavor
Just because you are
Just because you are
So beautiful
I've been waiting all this life in the company of one
And I know I am young, but I don't want to be alone
If you could only just consider the two of us
And I know darling I could be so good to you

I See you rising on the horizon
Bringing light into the day
And I'm coasting on your rays
When I awoke you spoke through the midst of a mystic bliss
Casting shadows on all my dismal yesterdays
Do you remember that you told me darling that I was so real
I tell you all my tears for you are real
We'll cross that bridge again someday
I know we will
I hope we will

Desert sunset a lullaby
If I could give it all to you
If you'd only let me try
Sing so sweetly
It's my only wish
Music drips from your lips like sweet sips of a summers kiss
Summer raindrops precious tongues twist

I've been waiting all this life in the company of one
And I know I am young, but I don't want to be alone
If you could only just consider the two of us
And I know darlin I could be so good to you

I See you risin' on the horizon
Bringin' light into the day
And I'm coastin' on your rays
When I awoke you spoke through the midst of a mystic bliss
Casting shadows on all my dismal yesterdays
Do you remember that you told me darlin that I was so real
I tell you all my tears for you are real
We'll cross that bridge again someday
I know we will
I hope we will

Desert moonrise into the night
Before we lay our heads I wish to walk under the splendorous starlight
Sing so sweetly
It's the sweetest sound
And I become weak in the knees
And I drop down and kiss the ground
And all my cares lie far below
In this earth I wish to die
In this heart my fire grows
