Lyrics

From the mountains of the moon to the mighty delta 
From the deserts of the West to the shining sea 
Beneath the canopy of stars flowed the serpent river 
Flowing through my father's land that he left to me 
From the baker to the priest to the candle maker 
From the highest to the low in my father's land 
We make our offer to the sun 'fore the break of morning 
Or else everything we have will just turn to sand 

I have a lot to ask 
I have a lot that I need to say 
I have so much to do 
And all I need is another day 

From the soldier to the scribe to the carpet maker 
All the different colored threads in a carpet loom 
A woven tapestry of life is our mighty nation 
This is the writing on the wall of my father's tomb 

We have a lot to ask 
We have a lot that we need to say 
We have so much to do 
And all we need is another day 

Beneath the desert moon I call you 
Beneath the desert moon I sing 
Beneath the desert moon so lonely 
I'm just a boy who would be king 

With just the moon to guide us 
We sometimes lose our way 
If there's a light inside us 
We'll follow, follow it to the brightness of the day 

Every single blade of grass every yellow flower 
Every ripple on the sea or the blue blue Nile 
Every leaf on every tree every single creature 
From the smallest little bird to the crocodile 

We have a lot to ask 
We have a lot that we need to say 
We have so much to do 
And all we need is another day 

Beneath the desert moon I call you 
Beneath the desert moon we sing 
Beneath the desert moon we're waiting 
Before the coming of the king 

Beneath the desert moon that's sinking 
We see the Eastern skies on fire 
This is where darkness leaves 
And shining waters fall 
And let the shadows run 
And we'll say, "welcome to the sun" 

Brand new day... 

From the mountains of the moon to the mighty delta 
From the deserts of the West to the shining sea 
Beneath the canopy of stars flowed the serpent river 
Flowing through my father's land that he left to me
