Desert Rose (My Songs Version)

Sting -Desert Rose （My Songs Version）

I dream of rain

I dream of gardens in the desert sand

I wake in vain

I dream of love as time runs through my hand

I dream of fire

Those dreams are tied

To a horse that will never tire

And in the flames her shadows play

In the shape of a mans desire

This desert rose

Each of her veils a secret promise

This desert flower

No sweet perfume ever

Tortured me more than this

And as she turns

This way she moves

In the logic of all my dreams

This fire burns

I realize that nothings as it seems

I dream of rain

I dream of gardens in the desert sand

I wake in vain

I dream of love as time runs through my hand

I dream of rain

I lift my gaze to empty skies above

I close my eyes this rare perfume

Is the sweet intoxication of her love

I dream of rain

I dream of gardens in the desert sand

I wake in vain

I dream of love as time runs through my hand

Sweet desert rose

Each of her veils a secret promise

This desert flower

No sweet perfume ever

Is the sweet intoxication of the fall
