lyrics

went walking in the desert
with just my shoes
made me a headdress
I danced with my muse
the stars all above me
the sound of their silence
I was reminded
there in the night

solace and stillness
I leave a world of illness
take a desert’s sweet kiss
on my weary head
come a rolling thunder
and the rhythm of rain
I am free from these chains
that I did not choose

roar of the wild
may I be your companion
I will defend you
until I am dust
there will come a time
down rivers and highways
when you and me are
one in the same

it’s my good fortune
a haven from madness
if money makes sadness
then a poor man I’ll die
I’ve danced with holy
women and children
ghosts in the mountains
under one sky

roar of the wild
may I be your companion
I will defend you
until I am dust
there will come a time
down rivers and highways
when you and me are
one in the same

let me hear your voice
desert angel
let me hear your voice
mountain muse
let me hear your voice
lonesome cannon
it is you, I can’t refuse
