The Joshua Tree
Yeah


Desert sky
Dream beneath a desert sky
The rivers run but soon run dry
We need new dreams tonight


Desert rose
Dreamed I saw a desert rose
Dress torn in ribbons and in bows
Like a siren she calls to me


Sleep comes like a drug
In God's Country
Sad eyes, crooked crosses
In God's Country


Set me alight
We'll punch a hole right through the night
Everyday the dreamers die
To see what's on the other side


She is liberty
And she comes to rescue me
Hope, faith, her vanity
The greatest gift is gold


Sleep comes like a drug
In God's Country
Sad eyes, crooked crosses
In God's Country


Naked flame
She stands with a naked flame
I stand with the sons of Cain
Burned by the fire of love
Burned by the fire of love
