Deserted

Blind Melon

Grab my knee and look at me

And try to tell me I'll be home soon

Asleep in my bed and unstoned

I'm tired of me this way

I don't know what I've gotten into

But I'm glad it's now instead of sooner

This desert heat has crowded me strong

With a wish I had for winter

It's not as gentle as it sounds

As though it sounded yesterday

When I heard a leaf of my life hit the ground

And as a bottle cap flew from my fingers

I don't know what I've gotten in to

But I'm glad it's now instead of sooner

This desert heat has crowded me strong

With a wish I had for winter

..And the sands blew in my eyes

I stood on the edge and looked down to see

The light of a new life, shinning up on me

...With a wish that I had

The sand blew in my eyes
