Take me to the desert
 Where there's got to be
 A whole heap of nothing
 For you and me
 Take me to the desert
 Take me to the sand
 Show me the colour of your right hand.
 
Love is a temple
 Love is a shrine
 Buy some love at the five and dime
 A little bit of love
 From the counter store
 Get it on credit if you need some more.
 I'll the figure of your disgrace
 A criss cross pattern upon your face
 A woman's just too tired to think
 About the dirty old dishes in the kitchen sink.
 
I wish I was invisible
 So I could climb through the telephone
 When it hurts my ear
 And it hurts my brain
 And it makes me feel too much
 Too much too much too much.
 Don't cut me down
 When I'm talking to you
 'Cause I'm much too tall
 To feel that small.
 
Love is a temple
 Love is a shrine
 Love is pure
 And love is blind
 Love is a religious sign
 I'm gonna leave this love behind.
 Love is hot and love is cold
 I've been bought and I've been sold
 Love is rock and love is roll
 I just want someone to hold.
