Midlake - Of Desire Lyrics

Midlake Lyrics

"Of Desire"

We're working it out
But time can really really
Play some tricks on us now
I can't always tell if what is good for the fowl
May be not so good for everyone in the house
Make believe was never so easy

I never noticed why
Means to an end of desire

No one wants to get out of line
Reason should always see eye to eye
Then how did we end up on these sides
Of a hill never needing us to climb

I never noticed why
Means to an end of desire

There's something about
Going all around in circles
Wondering how everything that's given
Isn't means to allow
More than where we've ended up
With or without
Make believe was never so easy

I never noticed why
Means to an end of desire
