Freshlyground - Desire lyrics

I'm treading water. Going under. What did you say? My friends implore me "Don't do it You'll get your heart smashed to the ground, no way around it" My friends a**ure me "You're too good for this Something better waits for you beyond the corner" Though my friends adore me They pick me up around town Take me out any time I'm feeling sentimental My friends won't hold me When I can't sleep late at night When I can't put out the light Oh, this desire Oh, this desire I kiss your shoulder You look me in the eye Without panic or surprise I know I'm falling Into your rivers I'm moving faster now I'm flowing further into secret harbours Your arms are open You're too good to miss Without panic or surprise I know I'm falling Oh, this desire But what about this loneliness? Maybe I should question this What about this loneliness? Maybe I should question this My head is under the bed You're not ready for all this All you wanted was a moment's celebration I'm treading water. Going under. Did you say? My friends console me They pick me up around town; Take me out anytime I'm feeling temperamental My friends will hold me when I can't sleep late at night When I can't put out the light Oh, this desire Oh, this desire But what about this loneliness? Maybe I should question this What about this loneliness? Maybe I should question this What about this loneliness?
