DESIREE
WRITTEN BY NEIL SEDAKA / DARA SEDAKA

There's a place so deep within my heart
I can feel the presence of you,
Even though I know we've been apart
Desiree I think I love you.
In my mind I never can forget
The moment that we met
I knew that someday
If I could, I'd be with you again,
Haunts me night and day.
 
Desiree I love you,
Why did you leave me alone?
Desiree, a gipsy
Destination unknown.
Come be with me, come stay with me, come back to me again.
Desiree I love you
With every beat of my heart.
 
Left behind a fortune and a dream,
Fantasies we shared together.
All that's left are memories so it seems,
Love I'll think of you for ever.
Breathlessly I'm searchin' in the night,
Lookin' for the light I saw in your eyes.
I can't believe you'll never come again,
It haunts me night and day.
 
Desire se thelo o s'agapo (Desire I love you)
Desire kardia moy s'epithymo (Desire my heart, I have desire for you)
Ela konta fere xara (Come on with me ,bring me joy)
Xoris esena den boro (Without you I can't live)
Desire se thelo se epithymo (Desire I have desire for you)
 
Desiree I love you,
Why did you leave me alone?
Desiree, a gipsy
Destination unknown.
Come be with me, come stay with me, come back to me again.
Desiree I love you
With every beat of my heart.
 
This could be the chance of a lifetime,
Could be the chance of a lifetime,
If you would just come back to me.
And any time is the right time,
Please say we'll soon be together,
Bring back the wonder of our love.
I dream of Athens once again,
And all the love that we knew then.
Each night I say a prayer that
In time we both can share that love once again
