One Burning Desire - Hugh Cornwell

I’m gonna try and steal a car

Drive it off with you somewhere afar

I’ll start a fire deep inside

Find a place where we can hide

And as life flashes by

You want to know the reasons why

I’ll be there with words to take you higher

One burning desire

I’m gonna try to be a light

Set the world on fire day and night

We start an education here

The signs look good no need to fear

The other people come and go

Why play the scenes they only know

I’ll be here to help you walk the wire

One burning desire one burning desire

One burning desire x 4

I want to get inside your head

Find your ma and pa and what got said

And as we get familiar too

Find every scar and small tattoo

And as we start to play the game

I’ll confess and take the blame

But you’re the one who poured fuel on the fire

One burning desire one burning desire one burning desire

One burning desire x 4
