Lyrics

Desiree

Where we were going was never in doubt.
She chewed me up, she spit me out.
And I knew all along she was gonna leave some day,
So I did it her way,
Whatever you say, Desiree.

The allure of a woman is powerful strong.
I let her use me, I knew it was wrong.
But the passion was a poison that I could not turn away,
And so I just stayed,
Day after day, with Desiree.

And when she loved me,
Oh-oh-oh, when she loved me,
I could die and go to heaven right then and there,
And she wouldn't care.

Last Sunday morning, her suitcase was gone.
She cleaned out the cash jar, she ain't coming home.
And she didn't leave a note, but I know what she would write.
She'd say "Get out of my life,
I need a man with a spine,
And you're a waste of my time."
She would put it that way,
Yeah, whatever you say, Desiree.
