lyrics

Desiree

The moon was full
Just like the lips of Desiree
The trees swayed
Just like the hips of Desiree

On that fateful night
My lovely Desi was struck down

The clouds screamed
Just like the soul of Desiree
To all the Gods I'd prayed
For a girl like Desiree

But one night the devil came
And took my lovely angel away

It was too late
When I first found my Desiree
But I'd find a way
To revive my Desiree

With a little ingenuity
And a sacrifice so bold

So you can see
Please take my eyes sweet Desiree
So you can breathe
Please take my heart sweet Desiree

So you can sleep
Please take my dreams sweet Desiree
So you can weep
Please take my tears sweet Desiree

Then I sewed my skin up tight
And left the pain of this earthly world

I'd die a thousand deaths
So she could live one minute more
