Grab my knee and   look at me and try to tell me   I'll be home soon   Asleep in my bed and unstoned   I'm tired of me this way      I don't know what I've gotten into   But I'm glad that it's now instead of sooner   This desert heat has crowded me strong   With a wish that I had for winter      It's not as gentle as it sounds   As though is sounded yesterday   When I heard a leaf of my life hit the ground   As a bottle cap flew from my fingers      I don't know what I've gotten into   But I'm glad that it's now instead of sooner   This desert heat has crowded me strong   With a wish that I had for winter      ...and the sand blew in my eyes      As I stood on the edge and looked down to see   The light of a new life shining up on me      I don't know what I've gotten into   But I'm glad that it's now instead of sooner   This desert heat has crowded me strong   With a wish that I had for winter      ...and the sand blew in my eyes
