Matt MacDonald - Sahara lyrics

[Verse 1] Lying on my side knowing of thirst is how I'll die Chalk on my tongue Lying on the night beneath the dunes is where I lie to block the sun Trying to ignite some sort of pa**ion from inside to overcome This feeling of desertion can't be worse than never having anyone So I'll ask one thing Just one thing of you Don't ever turn me loose Even when I turn my back A lion on his side Was it the lying or his pride which brought him down? Once the king of beasts but now they feast on the thoughts beneath his vacant crown Trying to decide was it the lying or the pride which brought it down? To be alone to be dethroned believe me I know all about it now So I'll ask one thing Just one thing of you Dont ever turn me loose Even when I turn my back I never told you then that I'd be easy to love Supposedly I'm a man but I felt like a cub I wandered into the plains further and farther away Not ever knowing that I'd never come back the same As my organs gave way I swear I felt something burst It's been thirteen days and I'm dying of thirst For the birds of prey I pray that someone else will get here first I am not alone; I'll be alright Just take these bones and bring them back to life So I'll ask one thing Just one thing of you Don't ever turn me loose So I'll ask one thing Just one thing of you Don't ever turn me loose (So I'll ask) Don't ever turn me loose (One thing) Don't ever turn me loose (Just one thing) Even when I turn my back
