On the first part of the journey
I was looking at all the life
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
There was sand and hills and rings
The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz
And the sky with no clouds
The heat was hot and the ground was dry
But the air was full of sound

I`ve been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
`Cause there ain`t no one for to give you no pain
La, la ...

After two days in the desert sun
My skin began to turn red
After three days in the desert fun
I was looking at a river bed
And the story it told of a river that flowed
Made me sad to think it was dead

You see I`ve been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
`Cause there ain`t no one for to give you no pain
La, la ...

After nine days I let the horse run free
`Cause the desert had turned to sea
There were plants and birds and rocks and things
there was sand and hills and rings
The ocean is a desert with it`s life underground
And a perfect disguise above
Under the cities lies a heart made of ground
But the humans will give no love

You see I`ve been through the desert on a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert you can remember your name
`Cause there ain`t no one for to give you no pain
La, la ...
