Desert Night Lyrics

Your touch is taking me away from here
I'm alright, with no direction, hey
Too much, you're making me forget myself
Let's take a ride across the desert night

And when the sun comes out
In the morning light
I can feel you there
Oh, look at me now
Look at me now
I'm right here

And as the light spills out
In the sleepless air
You will see me there
Don't go anywhere, go anywhere
Wait right here

I'm alright
Oh, look at me now
I'm alright
Oh, look at me now

And when the sun comes up
In the morning light
I can feel you there
And when the sun comes up
In the morning light

You said, I'm looking for my happiness
I want to try to feel connected
And the rush of falling into emptiness
I want to drive under the street light

Oh, look at me now
Look at me now
I'm right here

And as the light spills out
Of the sleepless air
You will see me there
Don't go anywhere, go anywhere
Wait right here

I'm alright
Oh, look at me now
I'm alright
Oh, look at me now

And when the sun comes up
In the morning light
I can feel you there
And when the sun comes up
In the morning light

I'm alright
I'm alright

Cover art for Desert Night lyrics by RÜFÜS DU SOL

This song can be interpreted in a dark and introspective manner, reflecting feelings of disconnection, emptiness, and a search for happiness. The lyrics suggest a sense of being lost and lacking direction, as if the speaker's touch or connection with someone else is the only thing that temporarily takes them away from their current state.

The mention of forgetting oneself and the desire to feel connected could imply a deep loneliness or dissatisfaction with life. The reference to driving under the street light may suggest a desire to escape or find solace in the darkness and anonymity of the night.

Despite the darkness, there is a glimmer of hope in the repeated lines "I'm alright" and "look at me now." It could represent a fleeting moment of self-assurance or a desperate attempt to convince oneself of their well-being.

The mention of waiting and the plea not to go anywhere may reflect a fear of being abandoned or left behind, highlighting the speaker's vulnerability and need for support.

Ultimately, the song seems to convey a struggle with inner demons and a longing for something more, while clinging to the belief that everything will be alright in the end.
