Desiree
It was the third of June
On that summer's day
When I became a man
At the hands of a girl
Almost twice my age
And she came to me
Just like a morning sun
And it wasn't so much her words as such
As the way they were sung
It was the way they were sung
Desiree
Oh, Desiree
There I was found by the sweet passion sound
Of your loving song
Time was right, the night was long
Remember, Desiree
Oh, Desiree
Somehow I knew I could only have you
'Til the morning light
If only for that single night
Sweet Desiree, you made it right
Then came the fourth of June
On that sleepless night
Well I tossed and I turned while the thought of her burned
Up and down my mind
For she was there and gone
Without one regret
But she continues on like the words of a song
I could not forget
I could not forget
Desiree
Oh, Desiree
There I was found by the sweet passion sound
Of your loving song
Time was right, the night was long
Remember, Desiree
Oh, Desiree
And though somehow I knew I could only have you
'Til the morning light
The night was long, the time was right
Do you remember, Desiree
Oh, Desiree
Do you remember, Desiree
On that summer's day
When I became a man
At the hands of a girl
Almost twice my age
And she came to me
Just like a morning sun
And it wasn't so much her words as such
As the way they were sung
It was the way they were sung
Desiree
Oh, Desiree
There I was found by the sweet passion sound
Of your loving song
Time was right, the night was long
Remember, Desiree
Oh, Desiree
Somehow I knew I could only have you
'Til the morning light
If only for that single night
Sweet Desiree, you made it right
Then came the fourth of June
On that sleepless night
Well I tossed and I turned while the thought of her burned
Up and down my mind
For she was there and gone
Without one regret
But she continues on like the words of a song
I could not forget
I could not forget
Desiree
Oh, Desiree
There I was found by the sweet passion sound
Of your loving song
Time was right, the night was long
Remember, Desiree
Oh, Desiree
And though somehow I knew I could only have you
'Til the morning light
The night was long, the time was right
Do you remember, Desiree
Oh, Desiree
Do you remember, Desiree
