1
I reached the desert as the sun was rising
2
On the day that you were passing through
3
The caravan you travelled in was crowded
4
I didn't like the people around you
5
Those people hushed me when I tried to call you
6
The pushed me back and would not let me through
7
And these thin arms weren't strong enough to part them
8
So back into the roadside rocks I withdrew
9
Sometimes I am nervous when the night comes
10
I hear so many noises that are new
11
But I try not to think of you too often
12
I try not to use the beads you threw
13
Oh babe I conjured you up by mistake
14
I know that I'm supposed to wait
15
But when will I see you again
16
In daytime I do dances for the tourists
17
I strike a pose I hope they can't ignore
18
My hope is to attract your caravan to me
19
And then beat them to your side before they know
20
Oh babe I'm really sitting by the road
21
I hug my knees and hope that I'll see you
22
I made up that bit about the dances
23
But it keeps me from using the beads you threw
24
Oh babe I conjured you up by mistake
25
I know that I'm supposed to wait
26
But when will I see you again
27
Your caravan told me I was not one of them
28
Because the way I talked was not part of their school
29
I made too much fun of California
30
Well--I made too much fun of paper tools
31
You yourself--you told me not to join them
32
You said I would do better where I was
33
But is this really true--I get so lonely
34
The only wine that fills me up is you
35
Oh babe I conjured you up by mistake
36
I know that I'm supposed to wait
37
But when will I see you again
38
I am not as nervous when the night comes
39
And darkness falls among these desert rocks
40
Even though I still touch your beads and wish for you
41
Waiting becomes easier than not
42
Oh babe I conjured you up by mistake
43
I know that I'm supposed to wait
44
I just wanted to see you again
45
But when will I see you again
46
when?
