Desire Lyrics by The Black Lillies

Hard To Please

0

Standing in the light out on the hill
The sun in your hair, the whole world stood still
Silhouette on a blood red sky
I could see the fire burning in your eyes
Oh, the fire burning in your eyes
Could’ve heard your heart beating from a mile away
Take it all in, things words can’t say
Sunset falling on a bright-eyed dream
I guess everything’s not what it seems
No, everything’s not what it seems
But desire, oh desire
You can look away but it still remains
You can’t hide that burning flame
Of desire
And the prettiest thing that I’ve ever seen
Crashed in like a storm and gone like a dream
We took it all in and we drank our fill
Now I hold you in my heart and I always will
I hold you in my heart and I always will
Like desire, oh desire
You can walk away but it still won’t change
You can’t hide that burning flame Of desire
And the coldest thing that I’ve ever known
Is life without you in this world alone
There’s a picture of you burned in my mind
And I’ll carry it with me till the end of time
I’ll carry it with me till the end of time
And this desire, oh desire
You can look away but it still remains
You can’t hide that burning flame
You can walk away but it still won’t change
You can’t hide that burning flame
You can turn away but it still remains
You can’t hide that burning flame
Of desire
