Desiree Lyrics - David Nail

1 It's killin' me to write the word "goodbye"

2 I've wadded it up and tossed it a thousand times

3 We both know the reason

4 There ain't nothin' to explain

5 But I know that my leavin'

6 Will spare us both the pain

7 (Desiree), I can't hold you any longer

8 (Desiree), You love his money more than me

9 Now the taxi's at the gate

10 I guess all that's left to say

11 Is in teardrops at the bottom of the page

12 "I love you Desiree"

13 It'd be easier to leave if I were mad

14 But it's hard to lose the best you'll ever have

15 And to write this note to you

16 Was the hardest thing to do

17 But not as hard as bein' a poor boy

18 Who can't afford a girl like you

19 (Desiree), I can't hold you any longer

20 (Desiree), You love his money more than me

21 Now the taxi's at the gate

22 I guess all that's left to say

23 Is in teardrops at the bottom of the page

24 "I love you Desiree"

25 (Desiree), I can't hold you any longer

26 (Desiree), You love his money more than me

27 Now the taxi's at the gate

28 I guess all that's left to say

29 Is in teardrops at the bottom of the page

30 "I love you Desiree"

31 God, I love you, Desiree

32 I just can't take it anymore

33 (I won't be around for your goodbye)

34 (I won't be around for your goodbye)

35 Love his money more than me

36 (I won't be around for your goodbye)

37 Love his money more than me

38 (I won't be around for your goodbye)

39 Oh, you love his money and you love it more than me

40 (I won't be around for your goodbye)

41 Yeah, I was just a fool who couldn't see

42 (I won't be around for your goodbye)

43 Yeah, you love his money and you love it more than me
