Gary Hurlstone The Desert of Eden lyrics

I said I would wait
In the Desert of Eden
Follow you down
Cross the dust bowl of time

Bring me my knife
I will bleed just to please you
And bandage my heart
From your wedding gown

So in love, so in love, So in love, I will drown

Show me a trick
Something to amuse me
Down by your tombstone
I'll wait at sundown

Where 'Sick Eye' the raven watched
The ‘Wolf' take a woman
Now he has found her
She has gone from this world

So in love, so in love, so in love, I will drown

So here comes the rain
The flood that that will take me
Down by the Desert of Eden
I will drown


Driving in a big red car
It's driving me around she said, driving in a big red car
I think it's gone right to her head
She drove along the highway to junction 21
In the distance I just saw her as she drove into the sun
By Cloudy Ridge I caught her

As she turned she said ‘you're slow'
And smiling fired the engine
And turned up the radio
She's a lone runner
In a hot summer
I was sure of her
Now that car's got her

She's driving in a big red car
I think it's gone right to her head
It could have been a Buick
Or maybe a Du Pont
I could see her in the mirror
As she pulled away in front
Filled the tank with poison
And the devil watched the rear
He pressed the pedal hard
Whenever I got near


She's a lone runner in a hot summer
I was sure of her
But that car's, that car's, he's got her

Eight miles high and I can't fly,

I'm coming down mom,

Eight mile high and I can't fly

I'm coming down mama,

I'm coming down
