My lovers gone
My lover's gone
His boots no longer by my door
He left at dawn
And as I slept I felt him go returns no more
I will not watch the ocean
My lover's gone
No earthly ships will ever bring him home again
Bring him home again
My lover's gone
I know that kiss will be my last
No more his song
The tune upon his lips has passed I sing alone
While I watch the ocean
My lover's gone
No earthly ships will ever bring him home again
Bring him home again
I dream of rain
I dream of gardens in the desert sand
I wake in pain
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, this rare perfume
Is the sweet intoxication of her love
Sweet desert rose
This memory of Eden haunts us all
This desert flower, this rare perfume
