Death Of My Desire

White Town

Here my child



Rest your head on me.



Cos I'm the safest man you'll ever meet.



I'll tell you a story



I won't expect you to believe



About a boy who lost his reason to deceive



It's the death of my desire




While I grew up I hid behind a smile.



I was never allowed to be an average child.



And now the years have forced



me to be a man. I find I can't go



Along with this meaningless sham.




It's the death of my desire.




I want to find a new way



But I can't make it on my own,



I want a partner in crime



So I don't feel so alone.




So come to bed,



I won't disturb your sleep.



Cos I've a secret I'm determined not to keep



I see you understand my point of view,



You're safe because there's nothing I



need from you.




It's the death of my desire.
