Desirée

(Album: The Left Banke Too - 1968)

Everything returns again
Both the laughter and the rain
She is living somewhere far away
Still I ask her in my lonely way to stay
(Desiree) Desiree
(Now she's leaving)

Desiree, you know how it hurts me
Living alone through all the years
Nothing can hold the tears in me

Everything remains the same
Yet she answers not her name
Still if I could look beyond these skies
Standing here again before my eyes I'd see
(Desiree) Desiree
(Now she's leaving)

La la la la...

Desiree, you know how it hurts me
Where do I run to?
Is it real?
Knowing the pain I feel
So real

Desiree, you know how it hurts me
Living alone through all the years
Nothing can hold the tears in me
(Desiree)

La la la la...
