Lyrics
I 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.
I desire I desire
i pledge allegiance to the thought
that your love is all that matters
and your gestures have the power
to bring the whole world to its knees
don't let me torment you
don't let me bring you down
don't ever let me hurt you
don't let me fail because
i desire your attention
i desire your perfect love
i desire nothing more (than this)
(or less)
to give you happiness
could become a lifetime goal
a smile i might bring you
is more important than world peace
i pledge allegiance to the fact
that you're wise to walk away
for nothing is more dangerous
than desire when it's wrong
