Lyrics
[Intro] [Desert Evening Wind & Spanish Guitar Arpeggio]
Whisper of the dry wind across the rocky hill
Where the desert evening is majestic and still
[Verse 1] [Noah & Melody Alternating]
[Noah] Rows of blue agave planted in the clay
[Melody] Catching the final golden light of day
[Noah] Sharp pointed leaves reaching three feet high
[Melody] Drawing silhouettes against the orange sky
[Both] Two wooden fence rails holding up our arms
Safe from all the worldly frantic harms
[Pre-Chorus] [Upright Bass & Brush Snare]
Mountains glowing purple in the distant west
In the golden hour that our hearts love best
[Chorus] [Dramatic Sculptural Sunset Drop]
Blue agave spikes silhouetted against the orange sun
Now that all our desert journeys are done
Over the rolling hills of the Baja plain
Free from every stress and mental strain
Gaze out, breathe deep, let the sunset burn
The sweetest peace that we could ever earn
[Verse 2] [Felt Piano & Duet Vocal]
[Melody] You point towards a soaring desert hawk above
[Noah] In this sacred landscape of our faithful love
[Both] We watch the outlines lengthen on the sand
The happiest travelers in all the land
[Bridge] [Nylon Guitar Solo & Duet Vocal Runs]
Oh, the desert sunset is a work of art
Connecting human wonder heart to heart
Agave, mountains, sunset and partner true
Standing on the hill next to you
[Chorus] [Full Grand Sculptural Climax]
Blue agave spikes silhouetted against the orange sun
Now that all our desert journeys are done
Over the rolling hills of the Baja plain
Free from every stress and mental strain
Gaze out, breathe deep, let the sunset burn
The sweetest peace that we could ever earn
[Outro] [Desert Wind Whoosh & Guitar Decay]
Agave silhouettes...
Orange sunset.
[Fade Out]
[End]
