Desert Moon Lyrics

DESERT MOON

 Dennis DeYoung

 

 "Is this the train to Desert Moon?" was all she said

 but I knew I'd heard that stranger's voice before.

 I turned to look into her eyes, but she moved away

 She was standing in the rain

 Trying hard to speak my name

 They say first love never runs dry

 

 The waiter poured our memories in a tiny cup

 We stumbled over words we longed to hear

 We talked about the dreams we'd lost, or given up

 When the whistle caught the night

 And shook silence from my life

 As the last train rolled toward the moon

 

 Those summer nights

 When we were young

 We bragged of things

 We'd never done

 We were dreamers, only dreamers

 And in our haste

 To grow up too soon

 We left our innocence on Desert Moon

 We were dreamers, only dreamers

 On Desert Moon

 On Desert Moon

 On Desert Moon

 Desert Moon

 

 I still can hear the whisper of the summer nights

 It echoes in the corners of my heart

 The night is true and waiting for the desert train

 All the words we meant to say

 All the chances swept away

 Still remain on the road to undo

 

 Those summer nights, when we were young

 We bragged of things we'd never done

 We were dreamers, only dreamers

 Moments pass, and time moves on

 But dreams remain for just as long as there's dreamers

 All the dreamers

 

 On Desert Moon

 On Desert Moon

 On Desert Moon

 Desert Moon
