Desire to Love
David Longstreth
[Chorus]
Desire to love
Desire to love
[Verse]
Down the river as a child
If I couldn't see the horizon
I could see for miles
Love me by the river
Shivering with a temperature
Recovered by a virginal
Sixteen-year-old girl burning with her
[Chorus]
Desire to love
Desire to love
[Verse 2]
There was war inside my heart
I did not know if we should be together or apart
Torment never leave me
Comfortable and easy
Obviously I'm still breathing
But only by the beneficent feeling of her
[Chorus]
Desire to love
Desire to love
[Verse 3]
Picking flowers in the hills
There's a violet and azalea and a daffodil
Each one with its opening
It's Joni Mitchell loneliness
Unedited relationship with the sun
And a burning
[Chorus] x2
Desire to love
Desire to love
