On the first part of the journey |
|
I was looking at all the life |
|
There were plants and birds and rocks and things |
|
There was sand and hills and rings |
|
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz |
|
And the sky with no clouds |
|
The heat was hot and the ground was dry |
|
But the air was full of sound |
|
I've been through the desert on a horse with no name |
|
It felt good to be out of the rain |
|
In the desert you can remember your name |
|
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain |
|
La la la la la |
|
La la la la la |
|
La la la la la |
|
La la la la la |
|
After two days in the desert sun |
|
My skin began to turn red |
|
After three days in the desert fun |
|
I was looking at a river bed |
|
And the story it told of a river that flowed |
|
Made me sad to think it was dead |
|
You see I've been through the desert on a horse with no name |
|
It felt good to be out of the rain |
|
In the desert you can remember your name |
|
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain |
|
La la la la la |
|
La la la la la |
|
La la la la la |
|
La la la la la |
|
After nine days I let the horse run free |
|
'Cause the desert had turned to sea |
|
There were plants and birds and rocks and things |
|
There was sand and hills and rings |
|
The ocean is a desert with it's life underground |
|
And a perfect disguise above |
|
Under the cities lies a heart made of ground |
|
But the humans will give no love |
|
You see I've been through the desert on a horse with no name |
|
It felt good to be out of the rain |
|
In the desert you can remember your name |
|
'Cause there ain't no one for to give you no pain |
|
La la la la la |
|
La la la la la |
|
La la la la la |
|
La la la la la |
|
