Lonely Desire - Teena Marie

Hey you, back there!

Crying out in dark despair

Your spark-long gone

Did it vanish like the light of dawn

You lied-you tried

Playing it off like it don’t hurt you

You used to be so full of fire

Now all that’s left is lonely desire

Lonely desire-who put out your fire

Lonely desire-who put out your fire

Why do-you do

All the things that you despise

Your ways so crazed

I could have told you they were born to die

Your heart bleeds-weak knees

Playin it off is so hard to do

You used to be so full of fire

Now all that’s left is lonely desire

Lonely desire-who put out your fire

Lonely desire-who put out your fire

Oh did you know I saw what I pretended not to see

I saw you

You ought to think about it

You ought to let me get close to you

Let me start your fire

Let me start your fire

Let me start your fire

I’ll put an end to this lonely desire, baby

Oh did you know I saw what I pretended not to see

I saw you

You ought to think about it

You ought to let me get close to you

Adlib… sho do sho do-

You need lovin' too

Let me start your fire
