Album: The Little Prince

why Is The Desert [Richard Kiley & Steven Warner]

(Prince)
Why is the desert
So lovely to see?

(Pilot)
Why is the desert
So lovely to see?

(Prince)
There is a reason
Lovely to tell
Because the desert is hiding a well

What makes the desert so lovely at night?

(Pilot)
What makes the desert so lovely at night?

(Prince)
Millions of reasons

(Pilot)
Tell me just one

(Prince)
At night the desert is hiding the sun

(Pilot)
Why am I happy, we’re dying of thirst?

(Prince)
Why am I happy, we’re dying of thirst?

(Pilot)
Why are you happy?

(Prince)
Why do you think?

(Pilot)
Because there’s plenty of water to drink!

Glorious liquid
Better than beer

(Prince)
Why is it better?

(Pilot)
Beer isn’t here!

Water I love you

(Prince)
Water, me too!

(Both)
H20, here’s to you

(Prince)
Why was the desert so lovely before?

(Pilot)
Why was it lovely but not anymore

(Prince)
Water was hiding

(Pilot)
No one could see

(Both)
But now the water is hiding me
