Desire

Lyrics

[Verse 1: St. Paul Peterson and Susannah Melvoin] So long have we known each other So long have we known each other So little do we know Little do we know Sometimes I feel like strangers Sometimes I feel like strangers The real us we seldom do show Seldom do show [Chorus: Paul Peterson and Susannah Melvoin] Desire, it covers our faces It happens in curious places Your body, it covers my tower Ecstasy is ours [Verse 2: Paul Peterson, Susannah Melvoin, Both] I dream of a physical evening Dream of a physical evening, dream of a physical evening, dream of a physical evening I long for a night within you You're saving your love for some soldier Some soldier, some soldier, some soldier Who'd much rather die than stay by your side If you only knew [Chorus: Paul Peterson and Susannah Melvoin] Desire, it covers our faces It happens in curious places Your body, it covers my tower Ecstasy is ours [Verse 3: Paul Peterson and Susannah Melvoin] A ghost from your past Prevents us from knowing the pleasures of love What must I do to convince you Isn't the expression on my complexion enough? (Ecstasy) [Spoken Interlude: St. Paul Peterson] Don't tell me we have conflicting emotions It's written all over your face Come my love, cover my tower Ecstasy is ours [Verse 4: Paul Peterson, Susannah Melvoin, Both] So long have we known each other So long have we known each other So little do we know Let me show you [Chorus: St. Paul Peterson and Susannah Melvoin] Desire, it covers our faces It happens in curious places Your body, it covers my tower Ecstasy is ours Desire, it covers our faces It happens in curious places Your body, it covers my tower Ecstasy is ours Desire, it covers our faces It happens in curious places Your body, it covers my tower Ecstasy is ours
