[Intro, Fingerpicked Guitar, Ambient Wind Sounds] [Soft humming] (Ooh ooh ooh) [Verse 1] I walked through the sand where the shadows fall Under cactus arms so proud and tall The sun drew lines across my face In a land that time forgot to chase [Chorus, Gentle Harmony] There’s no welcome sign, no open gate The desert don’t lie, it just makes you wait Where the earth takes a breath and turns away She’s made it hard for man to stay [Verse 2] I heard the wind tell tales to no one Whispers lost beneath a dead sun No streams to sip, no trails to chart Just silence deep enough to stop your heart [Chorus, Echo Harmony] There’s no welcome sign, no open gate The desert don’t lie, it just makes you wait Where the rocks speak louder than we pray She sure has made it hard to stay [Bridge, Instrumental with Slide Guitar] [Desert Breeze Interlude] (ahh ahh ahh...) [Verse 3] No fences here, no hands to shake But you’ll know if you don’t belong, make no mistake She’s honest ground, she won’t pretend And if you linger long, she’ll call your end [Chorus, Full Harmony Layer] There’s no welcome sign, no open gate The desert don’t lie, it just makes you wait Where the stars replace the words we say She sure has made it hard to stay [Outro, Fade with Guitar and Harmonica] (Ooh ooh ooh...) No welcome sign... Just sky and sand... And a quiet hand...
