I'll head for the dunes
Leaving faint footprints behind
The wind scatters your hair
Counting secrets deep in my mind
I thought love was an oasis
To heal all the lonely woes
When I found time was so harsh
Vows were broken wounds laid bare
The camel bells rouse my sweet girl
Your silhouette fades in the sun's farewell
Look at the desert under the moonlight
Still staring stars are shining bright
Why does love roam like the desert
Can't clutch your tender form
Why does love dry like an oasis
Leaving me lost in tempest's storm
Why does love float like the dunes
Yet makes me eager to be burned
Why does love dry like an oasis
Still makes me keep the vow I've learned
You're gone with the camel bells
Taking all my bravado away
Chasing the river in your dream
Can it slake my thirst I can't say
In the desert I'll keep on chasing
Your lovely shadow you left behind
Picking up each and every time
Our shattered memories so hard to find
Why does love roam like the desert
Can't clutch your tender form
Why does love dry like an oasis
Leaving me lost in tempest's storm
Why does love float like the dunes
Yet makes me eager to be burned
Why does love dry like an oasis
Still makes me keep the vow I've learned
You're gone with the camel bells
I've learned to breathe in the sandy gales
Chasing the moon -bay in the dream
Where there are echoes of the Silk Road's tales
What kind of blossoms bloom on the dunes
An endless sunset glows in the waste
If love drifts like the flying sand
I'd be the sand from the mountain's embrace
Why does love float like the dunes
Yet leads me to the home -bound stream
Chasing the girl in your dream
Where there's my first sweetest theme
