Desert Moon

Is this the train to Desert Moon

Was all she said

But I knew I'd heard

that stranger's voice before

I turned to look into her eyes

But she moved away

She was standing in the rain

Trying hard to speak my name

They say first love never runs dry



The waiter poured our memories into tiny cup

We stumbled over words we longed to hear

We talked about the dreams we'd lost, or given up

When a whistle cut the night

And shook silence from our lives

As the last train rolled towards to the dune



Those summer nights when we were young

We bragged of things

We'd never done

We were dreamers

Only dreamers

And in our haste

To grow too soon

We left our innocence

On Desert Moon

We were dreamers

Only dreamers



On Desert Moon

On Desert Moon

On Desert Moon

Desert Moon



[Instrumental Interlude]



I still can hear the whisper of the summer night

It echoes in the corners of my heart

The night we stood and waited for the desert train

All the words we meant to say

All the chances swept away

Still remain on the road to the dune



Those summer nights

When we were young

We bragged of things

We'd never done

We were dreamers

Only dreamers

Moments pass

And time moves on

But dreams remain

For just as long

As there's dreamers

All the dreamers



On Desert Moon

On Desert Moon

On Desert Moon

Desert Moon
