Lover, I’m off the street
Gonna go where the bright lights and the big city meet
With a red guitar, on fire
Desire
She’s a candle burning in my room
Yeah, I’m like the needle, needle and spoon
Over the counter with a shotgun
Pretty soon, everybody got one
And the fever, when I’m beside her
Desire, desire
And the fever getting higher
Desire, desire
Burning, burning
She’s the dollars, she’s my protection
Yeah, she’s a promise in the year of election
Oh sister, I can’t let you go
I’m like a preacher stealing hearts at a travelling show
For love or money, money, money…
And the fever, getting higher
Desire, desire
Desire, desire
Desire, desire, alright
Can you help him Larry? He needs a man

Desire.
I was in love with Bono in high school. The first time I saw this video and him saying "Yeah" at the beginning with That Look was a.little too much for my innocent teenage heart. Still gives me the flutters. Song ain't too bad, either.
The greatest gift is DESIRE.
Is it possible to not like this?
I love U2 and I don't like people who understimate this amazing band!
The greatest gift is DESIRE.
Really sad that a great song with a great video such as "Desire" has only 8,6 million views while some absolute sewage that they dare call "music" has 200-400x more views. More people need to listen to the brilliance that is 1980s U2.
So many funny and unfunny comments. People get a grip! U2s music has spanned decades... just like the Rolling Stones, Michael Jackson and many other artists. To continue to wow millions of fans worldwide, bring out great albums is so hard to do.
Yes not all songs are great! But U2s music is a million times better than most of the rubbish that's played these days
