Neil Diamond – Desiree

Neil Diamond – Desiree

It was the third of JuneOn that summer’s dayWhen I became a manAt the hands of a girl almost twice my age
And she came to meJust like a morning sunAnd it wasn’t so much her words as suchAs the way they were sungIt was the way they were sung
DesireeOh, DesireeThere I was foundBy the sweet passion soundOf your loving songTime was right, the night was long
Remember, Desiree?Oh, DesireeSomehow I knewI could only have you ‘til the morning lightIf only for that single nightSweet Desiree, you made it right
Then came the fourth of JuneOn that sleepless nightWell, I tossed and I turnedWhile the thought of her burned up and down my mind
For she was there and goneWithout one regretBut she continues onLike the words of a songI could not forget, I could not forget
DesireeOh, DesireeThere I was foundBy the sweet passion soundOf your loving songTime was right, the night was long
Remember, Desiree?Oh, DesireeAnd though somehow I knewI could only have you ‘til the morning lightThe night was long, the time was right
Do you remember, Desiree?Oh, Desiree
Do you remember, Desiree?
