lyrics

Throw another log on the dying campfire
let your fingers on the guitar play another song for me
Don't let the rising moon chase you to your cold bed
No, stay here and talk awhile with me

What would it feel like to walk with you
over Juniper hills, beneath Scorpio's eye?
What would it feel like to walk alone with you
under the wide desert sky?

Wonder how the bats flit so near the firelight
Listen to the nighthawks as they peep to the sky
Feel the desert breeze, how it hugs us good-night
Oh, stay here and talk awhile with me

What would it feel like to walk with you
sweet as river willow, and as soft as Indian rye?
What would it feel like to walk alone with you
under the wide desert sky?

Under the wide desert sky?
