Music and lyrics by Jonathan Byrd and Chris Kokesh

lyrics

Our love is a desert rose.
Sometimes it hides. Sometimes it shows.
But it's always there and it always grows.
Our love is a desert rose.

Some people only see the desert
as rocks and thorns and tumbleweeds,
but underneath is life so tender
just waiting there patiently.

Our love is a desert rose.
Sometimes it hides. Sometimes it shows.
But it's always there and it always grows.
Our love is a desert rose.

Some people see us out together.
They think our time has come and gone.
We know our love's alive as ever.
Deep underground, the roots are strong.

Our love is a desert rose.
Sometimes it hides. Sometimes it shows.
But it's always there and it always grows.
Our love is a desert rose.
