Tornadoes spin me around   The rain beats on my face   Hurricanes ain't nothing, baby   A tidal wave can't quench my thirst      Don't you think that we all know   Your good looks pulled you through?   I'm just sittin' here, waitin' for Desiree      Drink of wine from a lovin' cup   Your face looks all messed up   I don't want to see you clear   I like your picture hard to read      I know I should get out   But my mind's already made up   I'm just sittin' here, waitin' for Desiree   I'm waitin' for Desiree      The news is bad enough   But it's the only station I can get   I turned the TV off   But you ain't come on yet      You lead a sheltered life   At least that's what I think   Anytime that I get up   Fix myself a drink      Your voice, come on, right now   And damn I missed you again   I'm just sittin' here, waitin' for Desiree   I'm just sittin' 'round, waitin' for Desiree      I'm just sittin' here, waitin' for Desiree   I'm waitin' for Desiree
