She was frozen   her light would not see the day      I walked away   you wanted it that way   now, I watch the cars pass by at night   things had to be that way   sirens rage through the silent night   things had to be that way      Oh I, who am I to seek   who am I to seek   Desire      Cold London morn'   we fit tight in the storm      You seized the day   it had to be that way   never mind what's only a piece of my heart   nothing could change that way   you should have nailed me up to the sky   there was a better way      Oh I, who was I to seek   who was I to seek   Desire      Now, heaven's gone   or heaven at least to me      my time is up   it has to be that way   these nights I walk the streets alone      it has to be that way   now I watch the windows at night   there is no other way,      Oh I, who am I to seek   who am I to seek   Desire      Oh I, Oh I,      who was I to seek   who was I to seek   Desire
