Jay Ducharme - Desert Sun

Desert sun
Climbing high
If I don't find me an oasis soon
I'm gonna die
Desert sun
Sinking low
Days go by
How long I've been here I just don't know
I remember cities
Tall against the night
Shining with a promise
Of a future that was bright
Mapped among my memories
Mirages now remain
Still I keep on hoping
They'll rise from the dust again
Desert sun
Climbing high
If I don't find me an oasis soon
I'm gonna die
Desert sun
Sinking low
I'm looking for familiar sights
I used to know
I'm followed by my footprints
And abandoned where I stand
Searching for my childhood
In the burning desert sand
Reality has won the fight
I fought all through my youth
But stubbornness and sadness
Blind me from the truth
Desert sun
Climbing high
If I don't find me an oasis soon
I'm gonna die
Desert sun
Sinking low
I'm looking for a fading dream
Of freezing snow
Some young men ran ahead of me
To settle someone's score
The enemy has long been dead
And still they search for more
I never understood
What all those men were fighting for
Can they rebuild the cities
With the ashes of a war
Desert sun
Climbing high
If I don't find me an oasis soon
I'm gonna die
Desert sun
Sinking low
I better find me peace right here
There's nowhere left to go
