Desire
Words and Music by Michael Silverstone
©2018 Mr. Silverstone Music/ASCAP 2/22/16

You feel a little pull,
a kind of hunger
which reminds you of a time
when you were younger
so now you feel you know
what was lost to you before
You get over things
with time and reason
but lacking either one
it’s open season
maybe you will never
be the same again

Chorus
You know you need it so you
do what you want
as you’re entangled on the wire
—of desire,. . .desire

You think its only fair that you be winning
so you try to make a new beginning
with everything you hoped to have
put on the line

You take it slow
but then you panic
in a grip that seems satanic
too much too fast
then you’re compromised

Feel the heartbeats beating
and the plans succeeding
then the pride before the fall
you’ll have to answer for it
you’ll have to answer for it—all

What you’ve wanted long enough is
yours you told me
but that was just another, golden oldie
just because they say it doesn’t make it right

You lit a little fire
and now it’s burning
the way it used to be
is now returning
it may be for the best
however it may go

Now steady as you go and take it easy
now you know the way that losing frees you
in every bit of trouble you are grateful for

You know you need it so you
do what you want
as you’re entangled on the wire
—of desire,. . .desire
