Sahara,
Did you hear the falling rose,
The beating heart that froze,
Did you see the falling fire in the sky.
Did you sleep in a broken home,
As your fear turned into stone,
Did you know the falling rain could turn you blind.
Sahara,
There must be more to life
Sahara,
When will you open your eyes,
Now I'm here, is it time to say goodbye.
Will the children see the sun,
Do they have to hide and run,
Will Mother always smile when she really cries.
Now the ashes paint the day,
And the night turns cold and grey,
Sahara did you walk into the light.
There must be more to life
Sahara,
When will you open your eyes,
Now I'm here, is it time to say goodbye.

Sahara,
Did you hear the falling rose,
The beating heart that froze,
Did you see the falling fire in the sky.
Did you sleep in a broken home,
As your fear turned into stone,
Did you know the falling rain could turn you blind.
Sahara,
There must be more to life
Sahara,
When will you open your eyes,
Now I'm here, is it time to say goodbye.
Will the children see the sun,
Do they have to hide and run,
Will Mother always smile when she really cries.
Now the ashes paint the day,
And the night turns cold and grey,
Sahara did you walk into the light.
There must be more to life
Sahara,
When will you open your eyes,
Now I'm here, is it time to say goodbye.
