In The Desert
Lyricist:Lee Benjamin Michael
When I am older When I am 94 I'm gonna die in the desert That's what the desert's for
And there'll be no water No rain, no hail, no tears 'Cause it never rains in the desert Like it has, where I live, here
I look up and see a million stars in the sky Not a sound but the ringing in my ears When I die in the desert That's what the desert's for
When I am older When I am 98 I'm gonna die in the city That's why the city's great
And there'll be no silence To make me stop and fear 'Cause it's never quiet in the city Like it is, where I live, here
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com I look out and see all the traffic passing by The smog in the air and the lights When I die in the city That's why the city's great
When I am older When I am 99 I'm gonna die in the country That's why the country's mine
And there'll be no concrete Just green trees and some cows 'Cause it's never hard in the country Like it is where I live now
But if I die tonight in my bed Still in this town And all these sounds in my head
I'll never have been to the desert The city, the country to die there Because I was busy and blind And I did not find the time And I would not have felt alive
