The Green Pajamas
Desiree
At the truck stop your eyes are in the waitress
On the highway your reflection’s in the windshield rain
On the radio it’s your voice I hear singing
That old song you sang before the raging pain
Desiree, Desiree
You became the only game I’d play
Desiree, Desiree
I loved you so - that’s all there is to say
To Wanda I was just a drinker
And to Tanya I was just a creep
To all the others I was such a deep, deep thinker
But I was thinking about you, wishing you were there with me
Desiree, Desiree
You became the only game I’d play
Desiree, Desiree
I loved you so - that’s all there is to say
Honey, Honey it’s cold without you
All my money - it don’t buy a thing
There’s all these pretty girls but I only think about you
‘Cause from Tampa clear to Portland they’re all missing one import thing
Their names ain’t…
Desiree, Desiree
You became the only game I’d play
Desiree, Desiree
I loved you so - that’s all there is to say
