How many times will I try
Til I get to the other side
Where the rivers run and the pastures lie
With a good guide
Who are you
You said go there
And I did I did I did
And you said I will meet you there
But you didn't didn't didn't
The sky's a roof of a wilderness
The dirt's a floor and the ceiling's pressing in
No water left and I'm a thirstin' woman
I want to see the other side
Who are you
Who are you
You said go there
And I did I did I did
And you said I will meet you there
But you didn't didn't didn't
And you said I will meet you there
But you didn't didn't didn't
And you said I will meet you there
But you didn't didn't didn't

Forty Days
You said you'd meet me there. I went. You didn't. This is the desert song — forty days of standing in the wilderness, doing the math on a no-show.
