Underneath The Blossom of a Desert Rose
Underneath the blossom of a desert rose
He gladly took another dose
He lusted, lusted for her hungry look
The way she read him like a book
She was dancing in the summer rain
After smoking crack cocaine
He took off her teary clothes
Underneath, the blossom of a desert rose
Rising from the barren land
Coloring the ancient sand
Shelter for the one who tastes its gem
Holding close his spotted hand
Traveling to barren land
Bathing in the ancient sand
Cold will be the night
But shelter for the one who tastes its gem
Knees are digging through the holy ground
Where her voice will long resound
He lies still, and her eyes now close
Underneath the blossom of a desert rose
