Desert Rose: by Hoax Sapphire

By: Hoax Sapphire Song By: Sting & Cheb Mami

She comes as a vision in this empty body, my goddess of desire.

I dream of rain

I dream of gardens in the desert sand

I wake in pain

I dream of love as time runs through my hand

I want her to burn me, to make me feel her flame.

I dream of fire

Those dreams are tied to a horse that will never tire

And in the flames

Her shadows play in the shape of a man's desire

Each time her eyes look upon me, my heart beats faster, waiting for the time when I can claim her.

This desert rose

Each of her veils, a secret promise

This desert flower

No sweet perfume ever tortured me more than this

Her glare pierces through the mask that hides my face, a sight for only her, my flesh.

And as she turns

This way she moves in the logic of all my dreams

This fire burns

I realize that nothing's as it seems

Her hips sway as she walks towrd me,the heat flares off my skin. Layers of fabric flowing in the breeze of her, whisping back and forth like a crashing ocean. Cooling this burning desire.

I dream of rain

I dream of gardens in the desert sand

I wake in pain

I dream of love as time runs through my hand

Her smile beckons, enticing me in her aroma. My heart dreaming again.

I dream of rain

I lift my gaze to empty skies above

I close my eyes, this rare perfume

Is the sweet intoxication of her love

She pulls me into her, in her cage of passion. Her being toys with me, touching and kissing, painfuly taunting.

I dream of rain

I dream of gardens in the desert sand

I wake in pain

I dream of love as time runs through my hand

Dry maons come from a lonely throat, her moist lips penetrat the secret parts of my soul.

Sweet desert rose

Each of her veils, a secret promise

This desert flower

No sweet perfume ever tortured me more than this

This sweet pain she brings, her deadly poisin slipping its way through my vains. End my pain.

Sweet desert rose

This memory of Eden haunts us all

This desert flower, this rare perfume

Is the sweet intoxication of the fall
