When the last vision is lost And the moon rises over the red mountains Does the soul crawl forth and walk again? The only angels, buzzards riding on thermals Greet the flesh with hunger. And what heart opens to see the beauty of love Of compassion? The perpetual expanse Of stars above, the great unfolding.

Those who die in the desert
When the last vision is lost And the moon rises over the red mountains Does the soul crawl forth and walk again? The only angels, buzzards riding on thermals Greet the flesh with hunger. And what heart opens to see the beauty of love Of compassion? The perpetual expanse Of stars above, the great unfolding.
