[Verse 1]
Wrapped in a blanket of hope
Asleep in a bed of dreams
My step into eternity
Is not what it might have been
Or not at all for who knows
Which way the wind is gonna blow
I'm waiting for your gentle whisper

[Chorus]
Distant child, my flower
Are you blowing in the breeze?
Can you feel me as I breathe life into you?
In a while, my flower, somewhere in a desert haze
I know one day, you'll amaze me

[Verse 2]
An act of balancing, imagining
The moment I can be
Looking deep into your eyes
For now a mystery
Or not at all for who knows
Which way the wind is gonna blow
I'm waiting for your gentle whisper

[Chorus]
Distant child, my flower
Are you blowing in the breeze?
Can you feel me as I breathe life into you?
In a while, my flower, somewhere in a desert haze
I know one day, you'll amaze me

[Bridge]
Two hearts in the hands of time
Your love bleeds into mine
I'll be with you forever and
Give you everything I am
Want you to understand
It's you and I together

[Chorus]
Distant child, my flower
Are you blowing in the breeze?
Can you feel me as I breathe life into you?
In a while, my flower, somewhere in a desert haze
I know one day, you'll amaze me
(Distant child, my flower)
(Are you blowing in the breeze?)
(Can you feel me as I breathe life into you?)
(In a while, my flower, somewhere in a desert haze)
I know one day, you'll amaze me

Kylie Minogue is an Australian singer, songwriter, and actress. Often referred to as the Goddess of Pop with a career spanning over 30 years, she has transformed from girl-next-door soap star to ‘90s pop starlet, and short-lived indie darling to bona fide superstar.

Kylie earned her first big break on the Australian soap opera Neighbours, playing tomboy mechanic Charlene Mitchell. An on-screen romance with Jason Donovan – who played Scott Robinson – blossomed into a real-life relationship, and their wedding on the soap drew in millions of viewers. However, her real ambition was a successful career in music, and by 1988 her debut album, Kylie, was released, reaching #1 in the UK and Australia. Notching up 10 UK Top 3 singles by 1993, she was one of the defining popstars of the early ‘90s. Her follow-ups to the debut album – Enjoy Yourself, Rhythm of Love and Let’s Get To It – all reached the Top 15 in the UK.

With a blossoming relationship with late INXS frontman Michael Hutchence, Kylie was encouraged to be more ambitious with her image and sound. As such, she left her former label, PWL, and released the daring “Confide In Me” in early 1994. Critics praised her re-invention, and the single restored the success she had somewhat lost with her previous album. Impossible Princess was another critical success but failed to make much of an impact on the charts, which led some media outlets to believe that her “15 minutes of fame” were over.
