about

‘Desert Love’ is Palm Lakes' most personal song to date, built on a melodic idea that came to Ian Hardwick while sitting under the starry skies of Mojave in southern California.

“When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive – to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love.” - Marcus Aurelius

Featuring special guest Paul Dymott on lead guitar, Desert Love’s heartfelt verse, anthemic chorus and soaring middle section evoke the epic productions & adventurous spirit of the 80’s.

lyrics

Desert Love

I’ll tell you something about the way we live our lives
Leaving by the way we shoot right up into the sky
Oh the sun it burns and turns, but never dies
Like I would be in love with …you every-time

Remember when we had
Desert love
In silence we walked without trace
Me next to you
In desert love
There’s only the memories we make

Tell me something about the way you live your life
The highway is holding us on a straight line
Oh the stars they shine & find their way to your eyes
Just like me….they’re with you tonight

Remember when we had
Desert love
In silence we walked without trace
Me next to you
In desert love
There’s only the memories we make
The memories made

The moon on the horizon
We are the only ones
Can you hear the calling??
So alive….

Desert love
In silence we walked without trace
Me next to you
In desert love
There’s only the memories we make
The memories made…
