Lyrics

Taste of sea on the tongue
Sandy breath burns the lungs
Thick as it is this skins been stung
Barren dunes thirsty for change
But if we let it go now it wouldn’t be so strange

Desert waters floodin’ fast
Lasting half as long as their past

Sometimes it happens without a sign
It’s hard to show how the stars could re-align
Nearing thunder lit up the sky
Stormy weather turns the page
Adjusting to the burning and now estranged

Desert waters floodin’ fast
Lasting half as long as their past

This desert dry, blood shot eyes
Blinking to hold back all those tears
I won’t cry, just say good-bye
To legacy loved for all those years
It’s your life, you rolled the dice
Now you’re praying and trying to take flight
Grains of love slipping through your hands
Building you sandcastles with dry sand, with dry sand

Desert waters floodin’ fast
Lasting half as long as their past
