In The Desert Lyrics - Soundtrack Exclusives & Rarities - Ben Lee

When I am older 

When I am 94 

I'm gonna die in the desert 

That's what the desert's for 

 

And there'll be no water 

No rain, no hail, no tears 

'Cause it never rains in the desert 

Like it has, where I live, here 

 

I look up and see a million stars in the sky 

Not a sound but the ringing in my ears 

When I die in the desert 

That's what the desert's for 

 

When I am older 

When I am 98 

I'm gonna die in the city 

That's why the city's great 

 

And there'll be no silence 

To make me stop and fear 

'Cause it's never quiet in the city 

Like it is, where I live, here 

 

I look out and see all the traffic passing by 

The smog in the air and the lights 

When I die in the city 

That's why the city's great 

 

When I am older 

When I am 99 

I'm gonna die in the country 

That's why the country's mine 

 

And there'll be no concrete 

Just green trees and some cows 

'Cause it's never hard in the country 

Like it is where I live now 

 

But if I die tonight in my bed 

Still in this town 

And all these sounds in my head 

 

I'll never have been to the desert 

The city, the country to die there 

Because I was busy and blind 

And I did not find the time 

And I would not have felt alive
