Desert Rose

(album: High Highs To Low Lows - 2019)

"Inshallah," that's what you say
You think I lost my faith
You won't speak my name
Forbidden, won't see you again
I chose a life of sin
Wish you could forgive

I got sharp edges, I get defensive
Too lost to care, middle finger in the air
I'm sorry that I scared ya
Be my protector when I cross the Sahara
Take me there, take me there and

Love me like a desert rose
Hold me like you can't let go
Keep me safe when I come home
Love me like a desert rose

Regarde nous
Les mêmes joues
Toi et moi, tous les deux les mêmes
Plus de joie, en rentrant dans le bled

I got sharp edges, I get defensive
Too lost to care, middle finger in the air
I'm sorry that I scared ya
Be my protector when I cross the Sahara
Take me there, take me there and

Love me like a desert rose
Hold me like you can't let go (Like you can't let go)
Keep me safe when I come home
Love me like a–

Love me, that's all I want (Habibi)
Hold me, is that too much? (Habibi)
Keep me safe when I come home (Habibi)
Love me, ah, love me like a–

Love me like a desert rose
Hold me like you can't let go
Keep me safe when I come home
Love me like a–

Like a desert
Habibi, habibi (Habibi)
Habibi, habibi, ah (Habibi)
Habibi, habibi, ah
Love me
Won't you love me?
