Lyrics of Desire by U2
verse
Lover, I'm off the streets
Gonna go where the bright lights
And the big city meet
With a red guitar, on fire
Desire
verse
She's a candle burnin' in my room
Yeah, I'm like the needle
The needle and spoon
Over the counter, with a shotgun
Pretty soon, everybody's got one
pre-chorus
I'm in a fever, when I'm beside her
chorus
Desire
Desire
And the fever, gettin' higher
Desire
Desire
Burning
Burning
bridge
She's the dollars
She's my protection
Yeah, she's a promise
In the year of election
Oh sister, I can't let you go
Like a preacher stealin' hearts at a travellin' show
For love or money, money, money
Money, money, money, money, money
Money, money, money
pre-chorus
And the fever, gettin' higher
chorus
Desire
Desire
Desire
Desire
Desire
Desire, hey
Writer(s): Dave Evans, Adam Clayton, Larry Mullen, Paul David Hewson
