Tell me how the likes of you could bloom in such a place?
I'm in awe of your wonder
My living proof of grace
You don't demand half the care that all the others do
Cactus flower, I never seen another thing like you
You're a beauty, cactus flower
Drop of rain in the driest hour
You're a gem to behold, my desert rose
Sweeter than the fruit atop of a prickly pear
Cactus flower, I'll carry your memory anywhere
She's a stubborn sunburnt soul swayin' in the summer wind
Long and lean
And somewhat green barefoot on the sunburnt sand
She bathes on sunshine
Dances beneath the desert moon
Cactus flower, I'm just as crazy for you
You're a beauty, cactus flower
Drop of rain in the driest hour
You're a gem to behold, my desert rose
Sweeter than the fruit atop of a prickly pear
Cactus flower, I'll follow your beauty anywhere
Cactus flower, I'd follow your beauty anywhere
