Notes:

Ryan Adams to Uncut Magazine:  "I don't know why I  wanted to do that song.  Another totally unrequited romance, I guess.  I really wanted someone's company and attention.  In true singer-songwriter bullshit fashion I recorded the song and she flipped her wig.  It's from 48 Hours session, which was really inspired by going to see
Alanis Morissette play.  She was amazing and it just made me feel I had to go back to the studio and try harder."

Lyrics:

Two hearts fading, like a flower.
And all this waiting, for the power.
For some answer, to this fire.
Sinking slowly.  The water’s higher.
Desire
Desire
With no secrets.  No obsession.
This time I'm speeding with no direction.
Without a reason.  What is this fire?
Burning slowly.  My one and only.
Desire
Desire
Desire
Desire
You know me.  You don't mind waiting.
You just can't show me, but God I'm praying,
That you'll find me, and that you'll see me,
That you run and never tire.
Desire
Desire
Desire
Desire
