In the desert where almost nothing grows You'll find the most beautiful rose Takes its name from Jericho A miracle of life I know a place I can't deny Where even a Jericho rose would die The desert of your heart's where I am trying to survive
Can't control this Can't let go this Feeling is all I have I know that...
I could build a tower out of steel and stone But trying to build a bridge to you Is something I can't seem to do If I could turn this dust to gold You'd see it clearly Trying to earn your love Is just like trying to learn the art of alchemy
The measure of a woman's heart Is just how deep and just how far A secret can be kept Till it is only distant memory My emotions fall on stony ground I wear them just like hand-me-downs Because I know the secret is the love That you have for me
I can't believe Can hardly breathe Without you by my side I know that...
I could build a tower out of steel and stone But trying to build a bridge to you Is something I can't seem to do If I could turn this dust to gold You'd see it clearly Trying to earn your love Is just like trying to learn the art of alchemy
How could life be the same If I find I loved in vain The dream I have every night Is to wake with you by my side
I could build a tower out of steel and stone But trying to build a bridge to you Is something I can't seem to do If I could turn this dust to gold You'd see it clearly Trying to earn your love Is just like trying to learn the art of alchemy
Trying to earn your love Is just like trying to learn the art of alchemy Alchemy
