Cactus Flower
Song by Southern Call
Heat of the summer over desert land
Where the sun beats down like a cattle brand
No sign of water, but you quench my thirst
You’re the only one living and still you burn
You’re a sight
To see
So fierce so free
Such a mystery
Keep going your way, don’t ever change baby
I see you shining in a world of shade
Try to steal your color but you still don’t fade
I wanna take you to the after hour
Cactus flower
You’re my cactus flower
I see your petals, I see your wildflower side
I wanna see you dancing in that light
I wanna hold you, I wanna pull you close
Keep you warm in the winter when you’re out on your own
Such a reckless heart
You’re beauty wrapped in dangerous arms
But I want every part
All the thorns and the scars make you who you are
Where the sun beats down like a cattle brand
No sign of water, but you quench my thirst
You’re the only one living and still you burn
You’re a sight
To see
So fierce so free
Such a mystery
Keep going your way, don’t ever change baby
I see you shining in a world of shade
Try to steal your color but you still don’t fade
I wanna take you to the after hour
Cactus flower
You’re my cactus flower
I see your petals, I see your wildflower side
I wanna see you dancing in that light
I wanna hold you, I wanna pull you close
Keep you warm in the winter when you’re out on your own
Such a reckless heart
You’re beauty wrapped in dangerous arms
But I want every part
All the thorns and the scars make you who you are
