I can read your lips
I can read your mind,
It's all I want to hear,
Why am I so blind?

And the way we were
Fatefully entwined
In a shameless world,
Rock 'n roll desire

All the things you are
In a single word
Famously inspired
Privately absurd

And the way we were
Fatefully entwined
In a shameless world,
Rock 'n roll desire

And the days go by
Morning noon and night,
Permanently wired
To the simple life,

And the way we were
Fatefully entwined
In a shameless world,
Rock 'n roll desire

Rock 'n roll desire
