Song | Desiree |
Artist | Paddy Goes to Holyhead |
Album | Hooray |
There was a queen down in Amsterdam, | |
dressed up in silk and black negligee | |
After the tempest she is so calm, | |
no one comes near her serenity | |
She once had a house down in Hollywood, | |
living her life was a fantasy | |
Now she has cooled off her red hot blood, | |
now she sits down drinking perfum tea | |
[chorus:] | |
Desiree - look at the stars, fallen at your feet | |
Desiree - what are you waiting for, who are you going to meet | |
The queen now has driven to sunny Spain, | |
she lives in a bungalow on the beach | |
She′s had a black sorrow sadness and pain, | |
now she´s completely gone out of reach | |
The waters are calling calling to you, | |
and you listen cleary to what they say | |
Now you know what it is you must do, | |
now you are leaving and on your way | |

Desiree look at the stars, fallen at your feet | |
Desiree what are you waiting for, who are you going to meet | |
The queen now has driven to sunny Spain, | |
she lives in a bungalow on the beach | |
She s had a black sorrow sadness and pain, | |
now she s completely gone out of reach | |
The waters are calling calling to you, | |
and you listen cleary to what they say | |
Now you know what it is you must do, | |
now you are leaving and on your way | |
