He don't know where he's going
And he ain't got a real good plan
So maybe she'll cry when he walks away
Maybe she'll sit there and smile at the pain, at the pain

She likes chasing down the sunset
Pretending she could run away
There's only two ways to leave this town
So she gets high and flies away, yeah, she flies away

Oh, but he loves her, and she needs him
He said: I must be going crazy
To keep on loving her this way, her this way
But the desert loves the rain

He packs an old suitcase
The photos in the front seat of his truck
Maybe she's so past forgiveness
That he's finally given up

So maybe she'll cry when he drives away
Maybe she'll sit there and smile at the pain
But either way

He loves her (he loves her), and she needs him (she needs him)
He said: I must be going crazy
To keep on loving her this way, her this way
But the desert loves the rain, the rain

Oh, but he loves her, and she needs him
He said: I must be going crazy
(He said: I must be going crazy)
He said: I must be going crazy
(He said: I must be going crazy)
He said: I must be going crazy
To keep on loving her this way, her this way
The desert loves the rain
Yeah, the desert loves the rain
