I caught the tail end of a song on the radio this evening and the station didn’t ID the artist or the track. I have had no luck searching around online thus far, and was hoping there might be a doper out there who could help me out.

The artist sounds similar to Ween at their more serious and sentimental (i.e., I Don’t Want It). It’s a slower tempo song with a male vocalist.

I can’t remember the lyrics verbatim, but towards the end before the last chorus there’s a line about looking for water in the desert…“she told me so” and the chorus has the refrain “Is there…for me…I just don’t know.”

From what I caught of it, it sounds like a really good song and I’d love to be able to hear it in its entirety. Anybody that can help me out?

Not quite it, but I figure lyrics can be misheard - it’s not [Kings of Leon’s “Cold Desert”](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bWkYu-hYTZs), is it?

Nope–not a bad track, though!
