Desert Pool

[ Lyrics ]

Sky reflects on water.

Palm-muted strings like footsteps in the sand,
I step into the dark with no demand.
Red rock glows under a silver moon,
no reception, no agenda—just your spoon
stirring stardust in my wine glass swirl,
made me feel like something rare, like pearl.
You didn’t ask, just read my eyes,
took the hint from a passing sigh.
Said, “I like caviar,” days before—
now it’s here, dropped from a chopper’s door.

Wind hums low through the canyon wall,
no distractions, no filter, no fall.
Just quiet hands and a cashmere drape,
like you knew how I’d shape the escape.

Sky reflects on water,
love reflects on us.
No one else can reach this,
no one knows this touch.
Sky reflects on water,
drowning in the view.
You don’t prove you love me—
it’s already true.

Toes kiss the edge, then dive beneath,
surface ripples swallow my breath.
Milky Way dips down to meet my skin,
you watch like it’s the only place you’ve been.
No phone buzz, no tag, no scroll,
just your voice saying, “You’re my whole.”
A single glass, vintage '95,
poured slow like you’ve all the time.
Helicopter fades into the night,
its echo blends with coyote light.

Silence here’s worth more than gold,
warmed my bones when the night got cold.
You don’t speak to show you care—
you shape the air.

Sky reflects on water,
love reflects on us.
No one else can reach this,
no one knows this touch.
Sky reflects on water,
drowning in the view.
You don’t prove you love me—
it’s already true.

They say love’s loud, love’s bright, love’s war—
but mine’s a whisper behind a door.
Not a gift, not a grand display—
it’s showing up *exactly* my way.
You remembered the caviar…
but more, you remembered who I am.

Sky reflects on water,
love reflects on us.
No one else can reach this,
no one knows this touch.
Sky reflects on water,
drowning in the view.
You don’t prove you love me—
it’s already true.

Sky reflects… on water…
