Dirty Projectors - Desire to Love lyrics

[Chorus] Desire to love Desire to love [Verse] Down the river as a child If I couldn't see the horizon I could see for miles Love me by the river Shivering with a temperature Recovered by a virginal Sixteen-year-old girl burning with her [Chorus] Desire to love Desire to love [Verse 2] There was war inside my heart I did not know if we should be together or apart Torment never leave me Comfortable and easy Obviously I'm still breathing But only by the beneficent feeling of her [Chorus] Desire to love Desire to love [Verse 3] Picking flowers in the hills There's a violet and azalea and a daffodil Each one with its opening It's Joni Mitchell loneliness Unedited relationship with the sun And a burning [Chorus] x2 Desire to love Desire to love
