[Verse] The sun melts the horizon low The dunes shift where the winds go slow Whispers ride on a camel’s tread The stars will guide where the maps have fled [Chorus] Oh where is the desert rose Oh where is the desert rose Blooming wild where no one knows Oh where is the desert rose [Verse 2] The sandstorm hums a deadly tune It dances cruel beneath the moon Your beauty cuts like jagged stone Yet in your shade I feel at home [Prechorus] Water runs thin in a thirsty land Gold slips through like grains of sand [Chorus] Oh where is the desert rose Oh where is the desert rose Blooming wild where no one knows Oh where is the desert rose [Bridge] Are you hiding in the winds that roar Are you the echo from an old folklore A fleeting mirage in a sea of gold A secret the desert will never unfold
