Here in this desert, beneath the sun and stars Still troubled by the rumblings of a million distant cars Please be good to me tonight, let me find my way The air has some command in it I cannot disobey A gunfight in Dodge City, a murder in Bombay All these deeds and worldly needs I must shrug off today All my life spent searching for prowess Left me lying here with you, tristesse
I was working in an orchard that grew the strangest fruit It wasn`t Mother Nature that made those trees take root Your children cannot hear you, they only want your loot You hold on to their essence like a parachute They never believed you were in distress Now you`ve gone and left them with tristesse
Oh, waters inflamed Ah, fires burning out Ah, ice melting down Ah, fires burnt out
A hotel suite in a rich man`s town, a hut in Botany Bay A prisoner by my own device, a mountain in my way I`m gonna have to alter my address "Cause I can`t stay much longer with tristesse And they call this carnival progress Invited by our queen tonight, tristesse
