Redemption

Hot desert wind,
The cry of an eagle
Lonely road,
The distance between people

Moon riding high,
In the crystal sky
A moment to hesitate,
In twilight of blue reflection

Oh desert wind,
Take these thoughts
Perceive my soul,
On this sandy lot

Hear the call, feel my sigh
Forgive me now of the pain inside

If you let it go, and let me in
I can’t justify another sin

I’m asking for redemption

Hours before, The sunset fades
Hapless hope, The post parades

See the shapes, In the looking glass
The darkened shadows, Of a bitter past

I chased away, The love I knew
Deceiving ways, were never true

These tortured thoughts,
In the desert wind
I must sanctify,
My soul again
