lyrics
A flower in the desert blooms anyway.
No one there to see it,
no one there to say,
"it's so purple in the morning
it reminds me of our love.”
It's not waiting, it's wide open,
it holds itself up.
And I go looking for answers for our love,
and the more I complicate it all,
the more I lose track of
a cool breeze on the ocean
keeps moving anyway.
No one there to feel it,
no one there to say,
"it's so chilly, come hold me,
only you can keep me warm.”
It's not searching,
it's completely whole.
And I go looking for answers for our love,
and the more I complicate it all,
the more I lose track of
a snowfall on the mountains
gathers in the trees.
The limbs bend, the ice shines
and no one's there to see.
It's so quiet, it's so blinding,
come make an angel with me.
It's not trying, it's just falling
from up above.
So when I go looking for answers for our love,
please remind me that all I need is to think of
a flower in the desert blooms anyway.
We can't see it, but it's real
as our love is today.
No one there to see it,
no one there to say,
"it's so purple in the morning
it reminds me of our love.”
It's not waiting, it's wide open,
it holds itself up.
And I go looking for answers for our love,
and the more I complicate it all,
the more I lose track of
a cool breeze on the ocean
keeps moving anyway.
No one there to feel it,
no one there to say,
"it's so chilly, come hold me,
only you can keep me warm.”
It's not searching,
it's completely whole.
And I go looking for answers for our love,
and the more I complicate it all,
the more I lose track of
a snowfall on the mountains
gathers in the trees.
The limbs bend, the ice shines
and no one's there to see.
It's so quiet, it's so blinding,
come make an angel with me.
It's not trying, it's just falling
from up above.
So when I go looking for answers for our love,
please remind me that all I need is to think of
a flower in the desert blooms anyway.
We can't see it, but it's real
as our love is today.
