Desire, makes you feel the need
You want to satisfy
Desire, let it lift you up
And fill your appetite
Pushin' 'cause you want to be the best, oh, yeah
Your sheer determination
Makes you different than the rest
A burning fire, deep down inside of you
There's something that you want to prove
Another time might not feel the same
Can't wait another day, 'cause your heart is yearnin'
Desire, makes you feel the need
You got to satisfy
Desire, let it lift you up
And fill your appetite
Now, you've got what it takes to make it
Keep your vibe in the positive, don't cha fake it, no
Of what you seek, you know you're gonna find
'Cause everybody has the time
Just be yourself when you walk the line
'Cause you cannot lose when you're reaching higher
Desire, makes you feel the need
You want to satisfy
Desire, can't you feel the thunder
Is it power, fortune or the fame you like
Hungry for that loving touch
It could never be too much
Long as the things that you pursue
Don't ever take control of you
I want you
I need you
I want you
(No)
I want you
I need you
I want you
(Higher)
Desire, makes you feel the need
You want to satisfy
Desire, let it lift you up
And fill your appetite
Desire, can you feel the thunder
Is it power, fortune or the fame you like
Desire
Desire
Desire
Hungry for that loving touch
It could never be too much
Long as the things that you pursue
Don't ever take control of you
I want you
I need you
I want you
I want you
I need you
(No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no)
I want you
Desire, makes you feel the need
You want to satisfy
Desire, can you feel the thunder
Is it power, fortune or the fame you like
You want to satisfy
Desire, let it lift you up
And fill your appetite
