Stephen Duffy And The Lilac Time
Текст песни Memory & Desire

I give up, I give up
It will never be enough
Have you met memory and desire?

I never felt like I belonged
I made another life in song
This is my memory and desire

I married young at 48
I was trying to escape
Dad and Mum, memory and desire
Mum and Dad, memory and desire

This is the story of my life
There's no plot but now a wife
Meet the wife, memory and desire
Wedding bells, memory and desire

It sounded just like rock and roll
As they put me in the hole
Rock and roll, memory and desire
Dust to dust, memory and desire

Memory and desire
Memory and desire
Memory and desire

He came from Hailey, Idaho
With a face for radio
Ezra Pound, memory and desire
Rest in peace: memory and desire
