Painted Desert

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 Ya' 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 thinkin', 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 Ya' 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 Walkin' in the sundown, I search in vain Waitin' on 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? Ya' 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 In a Painted Desert without you Where is my oasis? --- Painted Desert - Pat Benatar
