Desiree

Well I know it won’t be long,
I will sing another song
but I can’t remember now.
You’ve broken every tie
and I’ve swallowed every lie
but I can’t remember how.
My life went down the wishing well
but from my tongue I say,
Desiree… Don’t go away…
Desiree… Don’t go away…
Desiree… Don’t go away…
I know I must right
how you’ve stolen all the light
you’re a killer and a con
and I cannot understand
for my love you give me sand
and a rope to hang me on.
My life went down the wishing well
in my head I say I wish you well,
but from my tongue I say…
Desiree… Don’t go away.
Desiree… Don’t go away.
Desiree… Don’t go away.
Desiree… Don’t go away.
I can listen to the people who tell me I am blind,
I can take this sting away so I won’t have the need to stay.
