(It's Just) Desire

(album: After The Rain - 1990)

It might be the way you move
That keeps me up at night
Or the outline of your silhouette
When you step into the light
Is it in the things you say
Or the message in your eyes
The urgency you feel from me
Cannot be denied

I wanted freedom, not some ball and chain
But now I feel like giving in and I know what's to blame

It's just desire
Burning up my heart
I never want to let this feeling go
It's just desire
That makes me want to love you
All night long

I feel like there's a spell on me
That words just can't describe
It hit me like a ton of bricks
Right between the eyes
I swore I'd never take the fall
Now I'm hanging on the edge
Could you be my destiny
Or something I'll regret

This temptation just whets my appetite
I ain't hungry for no lasting thing, it's clear to me tonight

It's just desire
Burning up my heart
I never want to let this feeling go
It's just desire
That makes me want to love you
All night long

All right
Come on baby, oh, whoa

I don't know what possesses me
But every time you're next to me
I just can't control myself
When it comes to you I'm driven by desire

I want my freedom, not some ball and chain
But now I feel like giving in and I know what's to blame

It's just desire
Burning up my heart
I never want to let this feeling go
It's just desire
That makes me want to love you
All night long...
