Dreamed I was in a desert without any luck
Storm gray clouds, hovering above
Silence all around me, I was wandering alone
And I realized there is nothing anyone can really own

And I wished for guidance, and I wished for peace
I could see the lightning somewhere in the east
And I wish for affection, and I wished for calm
As I lay there nervous in the light of dawn
As I lay there nervous in the light of dawn

It's hard to change and it's hard to lose
It takes years for us to be made smooth
You can use up our love, yeah, precious energy
To be tossed like a shell from the hungry sea

And I wished for guidance, and I wished for peace
I could see the lightning somewhere in the east
And I wish for affection, and I wished for calm
As I lay there nervous in the light of dawn
As I lay there nervous in the light of dawn

Hold me in your arms until I fall asleep
I'm so tired, hold me

And I wished for guidance, and I wished for peace
I could see the lightning somewhere in the east
And I wish for affection, and I wished for calm
As I lay there nervous in the light of dawn
As I lay there nervous in the light of dawn
