Sweet desert child
Sweet desert child
What are you going to do?

Sweet desert child
Sweet desert child
Where will you go when everyone else has grown, sweet child?

It's gonna be all right
It's gonna be all right
You're not as doomed as you think you are

And when you get cold at night
Hold yourself tight

No one else is going to
Look up at that star that's just for you, sweet child

Sweet desert child
Sweet desert child
Where will you go when everyone else has grown?
