- Night and stars above that shine so bright
- The myst'ry of their fading light
- That shines upon our caravan
-
- Sleep upon my shoulder as we creep
- Across the sand so I may keep
- The mem'ry of our caravan
-
- This is so exciting
- You are so inviting
- Resting in my arms
- As I thrill to the magic charms
-
- Of you beside me here beneath the blue
- My dream of love is coming true
- Within our desert caravan!
