I’m walking on hard ground
I’m not wearing a frown
No matter the circumstances around
Like a desert flower
I’m blooming where planted
No matter if the ground’s hard and dry
Like a desert flower
Whose petals touch the sky
I’m reaching high
Won’t let this life pass me by
When I feel tired and worn
Can’t see the flower past the thorn
And my dreams feel tattered and torn
Then I remember…
It’s just a little while
And then I will smile
As things take a turn
For this I yearn
Like a desert flower
I’m blooming where planted
No matter if the ground’s hard and dry
Like a desert flower
Whose petals touch the sky
I’m reaching high
Won’t let this life pass me by
