Desire Lyrics by Raheem DeVaughn

Love Behind the Melody

2008

[Intro Harmonizing]

[Verse 1]
Desire — where are you when I need you most?
Can't you tell the way I long for you?
I think it's unfairly wrong of you
Teasing me like you do, baby
Could it be you do it just for fun
When you know I am the only one?
'Cause you know you are the only one I, the one I

[Chorus]
Desire (Ooh you make me)
Desire (In the morning, I)
Desire (You, baby)
Desire (Make me desire you, you, you, you)

[Verse 2]
Desire — please tell me why must you make me beg?
Desire, please stop running through my head
Is it that you love to play cat and mouse?
Give me a clue what to do, help me out
Perhaps I'm your subject or just your muse
It feels so damn good to be used
When you know I am the only one, the only one

[Chorus]
Desire (Ooh, ooh, ooh, oh, I desire you)
Desire (I can't help the way I desire you)
Desire (Oh, oh, oh)
Desire (I can't sleep at night, at night)
Desire (I wanna, I wanna touch you with)
Desire (Desire you)
Desire (Ooh-hoo, passionately with desire, yeah)
Desire (I wanna kiss you with every)

[Outro]
Every, every part of me wants every part of you, yeah
I desire you
I (Ooh-hoo) desire you (I desire you)
I (Ooh, ooh) de-sire you (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
I (I) desire you (If there ever was a time, baby)
I (Oh, oh, oh) de-sire you (Desire you — I would say the time is now)
I (Ooh) desire you (Come to me oh, oh)
Oh, I (It's urgent) desire you
(Can't you, can't you hear it in my voice how I desire you)
I desire you
Oh, I (Don't take too long) desire you (Don't take too long)
I desire you (Please)
Oh, I (Come to me, I want you, let me be your)
Desire
Desire (Desire you, ooh)
Desire (Oh, oh)
Desire (I desire you)
Desire
Desire, oh
Desire
Desire, oh, oh, oh
