Desert Dreaming

Joshua trees flaunt their silhouettes

A weary sun nods and slowly sets

While we climb higher, steps in sync with The Chain

And when the last headlights fade away

We laugh and steal back to Indian Cave

Where jealous moonlight searches for us in vain

When the world's spinning much too fast

And I don't know what to do

What I really need's to get desert dreaming with you

Now shadows dance in the firelight

The stars above us are burning bright

And all around you can feel the universe hum

We scoot together 'til our chairs touch

Sipping highballs from plastic cups

If this ain't heaven, it'll do 'til it comes
