Cactus

About the Song

Cactus explores the loneliness of waiting for love that feels just out of reach.

The endless passing of time turns longing into stillness, a desert where nothing seems to bloom.

Yet the cactus survives. It knows how to endure the heat, the silence and the waiting.

This song is about discovering that the strength to bloom was inside all along.

Verse 1

How can you withstand the passing of time?

Always alone through time.

Talk to me, please, let me know your secret.

Tell me how to hold my tears.

Verse 2

Alone in my desert heart,

I wait, and wait again,

Longing for love,

Your sweet words whispering in my ears.

Pre-Chorus

You’ll soon be here,

But I can’t move.

I’m all alone

In my desert heart.

Chorus

Endless waiting becomes my prison,

Longing for love to set me free.

I can’t move under the scorching sky,

Alone in my desert heart.

Bridge

One day I’ll bloom beneath the sky,

And you’ll be here next to me,

To show me that all along,

Love was inside of me.
