I dreamed I was in the desert
without any love
Stone gray clouds
Hovering above

Silence all around me
I was wondering alone
And I realized there is nothing
Anyone can really own

And I wished for guidance
And I wished for peace
I could see the lightning somewhere in the east
And I wished for affection and I wished for calm
As I lay there nervous in the light of dawn
As I lay there nervous in the light of dawn

It's hard to change and it's hard to move
It takes years for rough to be made smooth
You can use up all of your precious energy
To be tossed like a shell from a hungry sea

And I wished for guidance
And I wished for peace
I could see the lightning somewhere in the east
And I wished for affection and I wished for calm
As I lay there nervous in the light of dawn
As I lay there nervous in the light of dawn

Hold me in your arms until I fall asleep
I'm so tired, hold me

And I wished for guidance
And I wished for peace
I could see the lightning somewhere in the east
And I wished for affection and I wished for calm
As I lay there nervous in the light of dawn
As I lay there nervous in the light of dawn
