I dream of fire
                 Those dreams that tie two hearts that will never die
                                           And near the flames
                 The shadows play in the shape of the mans desire

This desert rose
                 Whose shadow bears the secret promise
This desert flower
                 No sweet perfume that would torture you more than this

And now she turns
               This way she moves in the logic of all my dreams
               This fire burns
I realize that nothings as it seems

                 I dream of rain
I dream of gardens in the desert sand
                 I wake in vain
I dream of love as time runs through my hand

I dream of rain
                 I lift my gaze to empty skies above
                                   I close my eyes
                 The rare perfume is the sweet intoxication of love

                 I dream of rain
I dream of gardens in the desert sand
                 I wake in vain
I dream of love as time runs through my hand

Sweet desert rose
                     Whose shadow bears the secret promise
This desert flower
                     No sweet perfume that would torture you more than this

Sweet desert rose
                     This memory of hidden hearts and souls
This desert flower
                     This rare perfurme is the sweet intoxication of love

                       I dream of rain
I dream of gardens in the desert sand
                       I wake in vain
I dream of love as time runs through my hand
