Lyrics to Heart's Desire
I hide under the blanket
I grasp onto my pillow
But babe, it's so unfair
I just can't feel you there
I ask about tomorrow
You say, "I have no clue"
I won't spill our tainted bliss
And you resist the urge to kiss
Stroke your hand every chance I get
When I bend over your desk
Babe, can you smell my neck?
If I were older by just a bit
I'd be the one you adore
And I wouldn't have to worry 'bout my innocence no more
I wish I were older sometimes
A kid trapped in your bed of lies
Scared of what it saw that night
Scared to death they'll see your light
Reaching for a cigarette
Sneak a peek at my new tattoo
Have a look, I did it all for you
Man, I wish I could love you for real
Man, can you hold me just once?
I'm scared to be the one you disown
God, I'm terrified of being alone
Man, you'd see me if I were older
Man, you could love me for real
Man, can I be your heart's desire?
Can I be your heart's desire?
If I were older by just a bit
There'd be no guilt, no police
Just us, hand forever on your leash
You'll grow old
I'll watch you die
You'll grow old
I'll watch you die
You'll grow old
And I'll watch you die
I grasp onto my pillow
But babe, it's so unfair
I just can't feel you there
I ask about tomorrow
You say, "I have no clue"
I won't spill our tainted bliss
And you resist the urge to kiss
Stroke your hand every chance I get
When I bend over your desk
Babe, can you smell my neck?
If I were older by just a bit
I'd be the one you adore
And I wouldn't have to worry 'bout my innocence no more
I wish I were older sometimes
A kid trapped in your bed of lies
Scared of what it saw that night
Scared to death they'll see your light
Reaching for a cigarette
Sneak a peek at my new tattoo
Have a look, I did it all for you
Man, I wish I could love you for real
Man, can you hold me just once?
I'm scared to be the one you disown
God, I'm terrified of being alone
Man, you'd see me if I were older
Man, you could love me for real
Man, can I be your heart's desire?
Can I be your heart's desire?
If I were older by just a bit
There'd be no guilt, no police
Just us, hand forever on your leash
You'll grow old
I'll watch you die
You'll grow old
I'll watch you die
You'll grow old
And I'll watch you die
