Painted Desert Lyrics


I hear your heartbeat, but you're never there
Like a mirage you haunt me everywhere
All day long I burn for you, lonely in the night
I tried to live alone, but I just can't get it rightYa' know that this town's like a painted desert
Dead heat, movin' in the city
I'm lost in a painted desert
In a painted desert without youI've done some thinkin', now that you're not here
I know your reasons and they're still not clear
All I'm sure of is what I got to lose
I tried to be a better loser but it's just no useYa' know that this town's like a painted desert
Dead heat, movin' in the city
I'm lost in a painted desert
In a painted desert without youWalk in the sundown, I search in vain
Waitin' on the wind that whispers out your name
Through concrete canyons echoing a world of other faces
No direction looks like home, where is my oasis?Ya' know that this town's like a painted desert
Dead heat, movin' in the city
I'm lost in a painted desert

In a painted desert without you
In a painted desert without you
Where is my oasis?

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

According to an early press release by EMI "His maverick ways paid off in 1993 when EMI Records released his self-penned debut Painted Desert Serenade, a collection of introspective story songs including the break-through single "Jessie" and "When A Woman Cries," already covered by legends Joe Cocker and Smokey Robinson. "I was so used to being outside of whatever was going on that I didn't even think I'd get a record deal, much less have my songs played on the radio." This, from the young man who received the BMI Award for one of the most played songs of 1994.
