Desert Bride Songtext
von VanWyck

I crossed the desert with a virgin bride
In cut off jeans and a smile so wide
It lightened up the sky above
As she leaped from the jeep into his arms

She don′t say no, he's got a factory
Dealing in tokens and memories
Souvenirs to hold dear
Dangling from his key ring chain

We climbed into the eye of the sleeping beast
Laid out in stone for all eternity
Do you believe she asked of me
I can believe if you do


We danced on a ridge
Like a knife so sharp
Kicking up the soft sand
With our stubborn hearts
Are we free at last
Or are we on the run
Will we raise the winds
Or drift away
Like dust in the desert sun
Like dust in the desert sun

He set up a tent and he lit a fire
She wanted to stay out and watch the stars
On the ridge she took my hand
Tracing the lines in my palm

You will travel over many lands
I will stay here and raise his sons
But tonight we are alike
Bathing in the same moonlight

We danced on a ridge
Like a knife so sharp
Kicking up the soft sand
With our stubborn hearts
Are we free at last
Or are we on the run
Will we raise the winds
Or drift away
Like dust in the desert sun
Like dust in the desert sun
