Night Birds Duo - Cactus (Radio Edit)

The desert sky turns into millions of stars in the cold night air
She stands dangerous but resilient and strong 
Hangs on tight, despite the little rain she gets
Hard to touch, she won't let you get too close
In a no man's land, the heat mercilessly beats down
She stands tall, with toughness and tenacity
Cloudbursts, welcome rain, wash off the dust and pain
They'll soften the earth around her roots
But if you dare, you just might see her bloom 
She's the prettiest bright flower in the desert sun
You'll be surprised
Something so full and open
Can come from such a hardened heart
But when the cactus blooms, ooh, ooh
That's when her magic starts
 
Beautiful and free
Firm as she can be 
When rain falls down 
She'll give her heart
But if you dare, you just might see her bloom 
She's the prettiest, brightest flower under desert skies
You'll be surprised
Something so full and open
Can come from such a hardened heart
But when the cactus blooms
That's when her magic starts
