We started off into the land
Desert landscape, desert sand
Our mission was, no need to hide -
To make it to the Other side

And as the sun began to blind
And burn into the veins inside
'Twas time for us to rest aside
In the heat of the desert

{chorus}
I'd give anything for this
To be woken with a kiss
To feel your warm, dry lips
In the heat of the desert

So at once I fell asleep
Dreaming dreams of ancient ships
Sailing through the sandy dunes,
Sailing through the afternoon

In my dream I saw you smile
Left those feelings of denial
And I walked so many miles
In the heat of the desert

{chorus}

In my dream you took my hand
As a lover, as a friend
There was no reason to pretend
In the heat of the desert

{chorus}
