The Alchemist (feat. Russel Watson)

[00:15.55] In the desert where almost nothing grows
[00:18.93] You'll find the most beautiful rose
[00:22.75] Takes its name from Jericho
[00:26.14] A miracle of life
[00:29.90] I know a place I can't deny
[00:33.46] Where even a Jericho rose would die
[00:37.17] The desert of your heart's where I am trying to survive
[00:44.61] Can't control this
[00:48.28] Can't let go this
[00:51.95] Feeling is all I have
[00:56.51] I know that...
[00:59.13] I could build a tower out of steel and stone
[01:05.41] But trying to build a bridge to you
[01:09.57] Is something I can't seem to do
[01:13.30] If I could turn this dust to gold
[01:17.19] You'd see it clearly
[01:20.79] Trying to earn your love
[01:23.32] Is just like trying to learn the art of alchemy
[01:42.53] The measure of a woman's heart
[01:46.38] Is just how deep and just how far
[01:49.95] A secret can be kept
[01:52.44] Till it is only distant memory
[01:57.00] My emotions fall on stony ground
[02:00.79] I wear them just like hand-me-downs
[02:04.72] Because I know the secret is the love
[02:09.18] That you have for me
[02:11.75] I can't believe
[02:14.92] Can hardly breathe
[02:18.31] Without you by my side
[02:23.73] I know that...
[02:26.39] I could build a tower out of steel and stone...
[03:10.87] How could life be the same
[03:13.85] If I find I loved in vain
[03:17.64] The dream I have every night
[03:21.01] Is to wake with you by my side
[03:42.85] I could build a tower out of steel and stone...
