On the first part of the journey I was looking at all the lifeThere were plants and birds and rocks and thingsThere was sand and hills and ringsThe first thing I met was a fly with a buzzAnd the sky with no cloudsThe heat was hot and the ground was dryBut the air was full of sound
I’ve been through the desert on a horse with no nameIt felt good to be out of the rainIn the desert you can remember your name‘Cause there ain’t no one for to give you no pain
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, laLa, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
After two days in the desert Sun my skin began to turn redAfter three days in the desert fun, I was looking at a river bedAnd the story it told of a river that flowedMade me sad to think it was dead
You see I’ve been through the desert on a horse with no nameIt felt good to be out of the rainIn the desert you can remember your name‘Cause there ain’t no one for to give you no pain
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, laLa, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
After nine days I let the horse run free‘Cause the desert had turned to seaThere were plants and birds and rocks and thingsThere was sand and hills and ringsThe ocean is a desert with it’s life undergroundAnd a perfect disguise aboveUnder the cities lies a heart made of groundBut the humans will give no love
You see, I’ve been through the desert on a horse with no nameIt felt good to be out of the rainIn the desert you can remember your name‘Cause there ain’t no one for to give you no pain
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, laLa, la, la, la, la, la, la, laLa, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
