Текст песни My Desert Bride - Tom McRae & The Standing Band

My desert bride
We drove until the road ran dry
And twisted into dirt and sky
And fell into the shadow of this place
And I took your hand as you took mine
And swore upon the desert sky
On every star we were bound for life
And we sang oh oh
And you said
My heart aches with every word
Yes and my hand shakes and
I cant hold my nerve, oh Lord
And here's to you, your majesty
Your glory carved in ivory
A relic of charm, still bloodstained
Now were the ghosts of Cerro Gordo
Darwin, Bodie, Colorado
River rising in high plains
And we sand oh oh
And you said
My heart aches with every word
Yes and my hand shakes and
I can't hold my nerve
And suddenly it's easy to say goodbye
And suddenly it's easy, my desert bride
Oh Lord, oh Lord, oh Lord
Here no flowers mark your grave
Save cactus rose and purple sage
More spine than colour and sharp as knives
So sleep my love till trumpets sound
To call you from this dry ground
And raise you to me in my arms once more
And we sang, oh, oh
And you said
My heart aches with every word
Yes and my hand shakes and
I can't hold my nerve and it's not so easy
To watch you die, and it's not so easy
My desert bride
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
