| In the desert where almost nothing grows
|
| you’ll find the most beautiful rose
|
| takes its name from Jericho
|
| a miracle of life
|
| I know a place I can’t deny
|
| where even a Jericho rose would die
|
| The desert of your heart’s where I am trying to survive
|
| Can’t control this
|
| can’t let go this
|
| feeling is all I have
|
| I know that
|
| I could build a tower out of steel and stone
|
| but trying to build a bridge to you
|
| is something I can’t seem to do If I could turn this dust to gold
|
| you’d see it clearly
|
| Trying to earn your love
|
| is just like trying to learn the art of alchemy
|
| The measure of a woman’s heart
|
| is just how deep and just how far
|
| a secret can be kept
|
| till it is only distant memory
|
| My emotions fall on stony ground
|
| I wear them just like hand-me-downs
|
| because I know the secret is the love
|
| that you have for me I can’t believe
|
| can hardly breathe
|
| without you by my side
|
| I know that
|
| I could build a tower out of steel and stone
|
| but trying to build a bridge to you
|
| is something I can’t seem to do If I could turn this dust to gold
|
| you’d see it clearly
|
| Trying to earn your love
|
| is just like trying to learn the art of alchemy
|
| How could life be the same
|
| if I find I loved in vain
|
| The dream I have every night
|
| is to wake with you by my side
|
| I could build a tower out of steel and stone
|
| but trying to build a bridge to you
|
| is something I can’t seem to do If I could turn this dust to gold
|
| you’d see it clearly
|
| Trying to earn your love
|
| is just like trying to learn the art of alchemy
|
| Trying to earn your love
|
| is just like trying to learn the art of alchemy |
