The Desert

(album: It's Time For... - 1986)

What does the desert make my heart stand still?
Why do I feel this chill?
Why do I feel this chill?
I can see when I'm standing there
Things I thought I had left
In some far away year

And I remember things
I forgot before
When I'm in the desert
I want to see the desert some more
See it some more

Well, desert desert
When I'm in the desert
I feel an ancient feeling
Oh desert, and I want to see the desert some more
Some more

Why does the desert make my heart go boom?
Like an Egyptian tomb
Like an Egyptian tomb
Well, I can see when I'm standing there
Things I thought I forgot
And I don't know from where

And I remember things
I forgot before
When I'm in the desert
I want to see the desert some more
Desert some more

Oh, desert desert
When I'm in the desert
I feel an ancient feeling
Oh desert, and I want to see the desert some more
Some more

Why does the desert make my heart go from?
Well, the martians land there
And they're not dumb
And the colours that
You can see there
Are like something you've known
But you don't know from where

And I remember things
I forgot before
When I'm in the desert
I want to see the desert some more
Desert some more
