Snow in the Sahara

There's just something about this song that gives such allure to my senses. The figures of speech are so beautiful, that the lyrics of the song just take me somewhere exotic, like the setting of Arabian nights, or a place in time where gypsies are dancing in wild abandon , with their loves, under the desert moon. The song seems magical, like a goddess watching her mortal beloved. Gosh, with the music coupled with the lyrics, I just love it. :) I just might be someone extremely romantic in my past life, I just don't know what kind :)

Snow in the Sahara ( Anggun )

Only tell me that you still want me here
When you wander off out there
To those hills of dust and hard winds that blows
In that dry white ocean alone

Lost out in the desert
You are lost out in the desert

But to stand with you in a ring of fire
I'll forget the days gone by
I'll protect your body and guard your soul
From mirages in your sight

Lost out in the desert ...

If your hopes scatter like the dust across your track
I'll be the moon that shines on your path
The sun may blind our eyes I'll pray the skies above
For snow to fall on the sahara
If that's the only place where you can leave your doubts
I'll hold you up and be your way out
And if we burn away I'll pray the skies above
For snow to fall on the sahara

Just a wish and iI will cover your shoulders
With veils of silk and gold
When the darkness comes and darkened your heart
Leaving you with regrets so cold

If your hopes scatter like the dust across your track
I'll be the moon that shines on your path
The sun may blind our eyes I'll pray the skies above
For snow to fall on the sahara
If that's the only place where you can leave your doubts
I'll hold you up and be your way out
And if we burn away I'll pray the skies above
For snow to fall on the sahara

Lost out in the desert
