The late light of the desert made
The mountains a silhouette
As curved as a woman's side
As far off as I feel inside
This gravity that used to feel like fear
Pulls me to a new conclusion
The light of you is the weight that keeps me here

I wake up with my soul on fire
I'm swimming in my heart's desire not
Drowning in somebody's wake, not
Smiling for somebody's sake
Why don't you just stay here in the sun
Beats me why you disappear honey
Ain't I your beloved one

My beloved, my beloved, my beloved one
My beloved, my beloved, my beloved one

I see you blue eyed old and grey still
Up all night 'til break of day.
You dance me across the kitchen floor, 
You still got one eye on the door.
How you love me with, 
Them halfway eyes.
And when I think there's nothing left
I think of love and all the time it buys.

My beloved, my beloved, my beloved one
My beloved, my beloved, my beloved one

The late light of the desert made
The mountains a silhouette
As curved as a woman's side, 
As far off as I feel inside.
The battle was hard fought but nobody won, 
I'll be your magnetic north baby, 
You be my beloved one.

My beloved, my beloved, my beloved one
My beloved, my beloved, my beloved one
