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 right.
You 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.
I`ve done some thinking 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 use. You know that this town`s like a painted desert. . . .
Walkin` the sundown I search in vain. Waitin` for 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? You know that this town`s like a painted desert.
