The Desert - Audiotree Live Version

I went into the desert and I missed him
 Don't know if it was the mountains
 Asking questions
 I went into the desert and i held him
 through a muddy creek, he
 was sand pooling in my hands
 and every night the desert sang a love song
 and inside my languid body was a fight
 and every night i hoped that he would come home
 but by daylight i knew it wasn't right
 the wash is drying up
 underneath the red sunset
 and I'm a lizard slinking through
 the valley of regret
 oh I'm the wild coyote
 yelping at the midnight sky
 a lover, forgotten how to love
 the sparrow, how to fly
 hollow, hollow when the moon is rising, rising
 lost my footing in the desert canyon
 i lost him and i lost my home
 saw him vanish into the horizon
 and there i was, left to be alone
