yello - desire lyrics

the sun
blowing the moon away
lights me up for
one more day
the streets are naked
in the morning sun
the night lifts behind me
i run and run

morning heat
puts a thin film of sweat on my face
a little man, his eyes half closed
puts chairs on tables
admires his work
and collects a quarter from the floor

i head over to broadway
where i watch myself
having a slow breakfast
trying to impress the barman with a fresh voice
when i ask for the bill

the sun
blowing the moon away
lights me up for
one more day
the streets are naked
in the morning sun
the night lifts behind me
i run and run

desire
desire for the unknown eyes
desire for the unknown name
i'm burning in the morning sun, i want to run
desire for the unknown name
desire for the unknown love
i'm burning in the morning sun
