Edge of Desire Lyrics

Young and full of runnin'
Tell me where's that takin' me?
Just a great figure eight or a tiny infinity

Love is really nothin'
But a dream that keeps wakin' me
For all of my tryin'
We still end up dyin'
How can it be?

Don't say a word, just come over and lie here with me
'Cause I'm just about to set fire to everythin' I see
I want you so bad I'll go back on the things I believe
There I just said it, I'm scared you'll forget about me

So young and full of runnin', all the way to the edge of desire
Steady my breathing, silently screaming
"I have to have you now"
Wired and I'm tired
Think I'll sleep in my clothes on the floor
Maybe this mattress will spin on its axis and find me on yours

Don't say a word, just come over and lie here with me
'Cause I'm just about to set fire to everythin' I see
I want you so bad I'll go back on the things I believe
There I just said it, I'm scared you'll forget about me

Don't say a word, just come over and lie here with me
'Cause I'm just about to set fire to everythin' I see
I want you so bad I'll go back on the things I believe
There I just said it, I'm scared you'll forget about me
