White Town
The Death Of My Desire
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
