Desire
U2
Lyrics by Bono

Yeah, lover I'm off the streets
Gonna go where the bright lights
     and the big city meet
With a red guitar, on fire
     Desire

She's the candle
     burning in my room
I'm like the needle
     needle and spoon
Over the counter
     with a shotgun
Pretty soon, everybody got one
And the fever when I'm beside her
     Desire, Desire

(Burning, Burning)

She's the dollars
She's my protection
She's the promise
In the year of election
Sister, I can't let you go
I'm like a preacher
Stealing hearts at a traveling show
For the love or money, money...?
     Desire...
