5. Why Is the Desert Lyrics

1974 fantasy film
The Little Prince - Why Is the Desert Lyrics

PRINCE:
Why is the desert
So lovely to see?

PILOT:
Why is the desert
So lovely to see?

PRINCE:
There is a reason
Lovely to tell
Because the desert is hiding a well

What makes the desert so lovely at night?

PILOT:
What makes the desert so lovely at night?

PRINCE:
Millions of reasons

PILOT:
Tell me just one

PRINCE:
At night the desert is hiding the sun

PILOT:
Why am I happy, we’re dying of thirst?

PRINCE:
Why am I happy, we’re dying of thirst?

PILOT:
Why are you happy?

PRINCE:
Why do you think?

PILOT:
Because there’s plenty of water to drink!

Glorious liquid
Better than beer

PRINCE:
Why is it better?

PILOT:
Beer isn’t here!

Water I love you

PRINCE:
Water, me too!

BOTH:
H20, here’s to you

PRINCE:
Why was the desert so lovely before?

PILOT:
Why was it lovely but not anymore

PRINCE:
Water was hiding

PILOT:
No one could see

BOTH:
But now the water is hiding in me
