Lolo Zouaï – Desert Rose lyrics

[Verse 1]
"Inshallah," that's what you say
You think I lost my faith
You won't speak my name
Forbidden, won't see you again
I chose a "life of sin"
Wish you could forgive

[Pre-Chorus]

Be my protector when I cross the Sahara

Take me there and

[Chorus]
Love me like a desert rose
Hold me like you can't let go

I get defensive
Too lost to care
Middle finger in the air, I'm sorry that I scared ya
Be my protector when I cross the Sahara
Take me there

[Chorus]
Love me like a desert rose
Hold me like you can't let go
Keep me safe when I come home
Love me like a–

[Bridge]

Love me
Ah, love me like a–

[Chorus]
Love me like a desert rose
Hold me like you can't let go
Keep me safe when I come home
Love me like a–

[Outro]
Like a desert
Habibi, habibi (habibi)
Habibi, habibi, ah (habibi)
Habibi, habibi, ah
Love me
Won't you love me?
