Cactus Flower

Well we live our lives in a desert
Waiting for the rain
It may be here today or a year away
Or it may never rain here again

And we live like cactus flowers,
Waiting for a sign
To show ourselves to the world, petals unfurled
Saying, knew we were here all the time

Chorus
It seems the sky may stay blue forever
It’s as tho nothing will ever change
Then I wake up one day and that blue sky is grey
And suddenly there’s rain
And you flower like its forever
You blaze into colour and then
Its what you’ve hidden away makes me stay
It’s what I’ve waited for
INSTRUMENTAL
And you’re blazing like a flower
Hey you put the world to shame
Your so intense and so real,
everything that I feel
Now
And we’re waiting in the desert
We’re waiting for the rain
I’m just waiting, waiting
But it may never rain here
It may never rain here
It may never rain here again
