Desire Be, Desire Go Lyrics
I don't know how long it's gonna stay with me
All I let desire be, desire go
What's it for? Back and forth, everyday
Everyday, back and forth, what's it for?
I don't know, I'll get out, won't have to check my watch
Oh, why I ever tried, I don't know
Everyday, back and forth, what's it for?
What's it for? Back and forth, everyday
Everyday, back and forth, what's it for?
I don't know, I forget, does it end here?
Desire be, desire go
Feel it come,
I don't know how long it's gonna stay with me,
I'll let desire be, desire go
only a few of us get out
great song about not wanting to participate in the mindless "daily grind"
Everyday Back and forth What's it for? What's it for? Back and forth Everyday

To me it sounds more like George Harrison's "Wonderwall" stuff. I love it
First line - "Feel it come" - I thought Kevin was singing "eeh by gum", like a Yorkshireman... :-)
