Desert life is precious
A place of all extremes
The sun's too hot to handle
It's brighter than it seems
Nights are cold and lonely
The days hot as hell
You might survive living here
It's just too soon to tell
Look in all directions
There's a billion stars tonight
The saguaro cactus stands like a sentry
Looking for a fight
Couples may be broken
River rocks may fly
But the clouds are always beautiful
In the Arizona skies
We are the stones
Smoothed by the river
Rough is the sand
And the water makes you shiver
Living here in desolation
You expect some things to die
It's strange but true
No one even cries
We celebrate for the living
Remembrance for the dead
We light a candle
At one end
Put the candle in the river
Watch it float away
Remember back in time to another day
Life was good, we liked it then
But we must go on and on
Till the candles come
Floating back again
We are the stones
Smoothed by the river
Rough is the sand
And the water makes you shiver
We are the stones
Smoothed by the river
Rough is the sand
And the water makes you shiver
Rarely in the desert
Comes a pouring rain
But it's joyful when it happens
You can feel alive
Standing in the shower
It feels like rain
There's nothing like the feeling
Of the absence
Of pain
We are the stones
Smoothed by the river
Rough is the sand
And the water makes you shiver
I said look out across, send word down
To reach the boss on the way to town
If you're going in the right direction
Here, then we're gone
But a little part lives on
Living life, dying death
And the earth just took one breath
We are the stones
Smoothed by the river
Rough is the sand
And the water makes you shiver
We are the stones
Smoothed by the river
Rough is the sand
And the water makes you shiver
We are the stones
Smoothed by the river
Rough is the sand
And the water makes you shiver
We are the stones
Smoothed by the river
Rough is the sand
And the water makes you shiver
And the water makes you shiver
And the water makes you shiver
And the water makes you shiver
And the water makes you
And the water makes you
And the water makes you
And the water makes you
And the water makes you
And the water makes you
