Lyrics
Real Desire
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well I know, that you're wanted
By every little man in town
Take your pick and baby they'll serve you
Oh but you will put them down
Talk but never listen
Is how you wanna play your game
Try that stuff on me baby
And I will do the same
(Chorus)
"Cause you wanna set the world on fire
And a little man will never do
The things you think are real desire
Oh darlin', I see right through
Clouded skies have lifted
And voices ring out from the choir
If you say you never meant to hurt me
Oh you would be a liar
(Chorus repeat)
