Lyrics

Exotico

Feel the night on trial
I stare into the fire
Because I want to feel the heat of desire
Yes, I want to feel the heat of desire
Night falls slowly when alone
She said, "I like the way you glow"
Because I know the simple signs
Because I know what I desire

Someday, over the desert
Tales of enchantment told
Someday, down from heaven
Beauty bought and sold

Sultry air
Made up in summer
The river flowing below
Save up your smiles
For distant lovers
For I will be there
I was drinking through the years
With a feeling debonair
And there was nothing but a Polaroid
'Cause I was serenading to a solo company
The light that left the light all alone

When you're fearing the suspicion
Needing recognition again
Just believe in simple pleasures
Feel the change in pressure again

Someday, over the desert
Tales of enchantment told
Someday, down from heaven
Beauty born to break the mold

For I will be there
For I will be there
In soft sultry air
For I will be there
