A#m  Fm    D#m
I must be tough
         A#m      Fm        D#m
I must behave, I must keep fighting
A#m   Fm      D#m
Don't give it up
           A#m     Fm    D#m
I want to keep us compromising

Open your arms and pray
to the truth that you're denying
Give in to the game
To the sense that you've been hiding

D#m
Where are you taking me?
Fm
I can't be blamed
   F#                   G#
I want you to want me again

Chorus:
        A#m Fm D#m
Is it desire
          A#m           Fm         D#m
Or is it love that I'm feeling for you
         A#m Fm  D#m
I want desire
            A#m       Fm      D#m
Cause your love only gets me abused

Give me that rush
I want to show you what you've been missing
Am I enough to keep your other lovers hidden?

Where are you taking me?
I can't be blamed
I want you to want me again

Chorus:
Is it desire, or is it love that
I'm feeling for you?
I want desire
'Cause your love only gets me abused
Is it desire (is it desire),
or is it love that I'm feeling for you?
I want desire
I wanna see what you're willing to lose

    D#m
You know that you've got me
        Fm
You've locked me down
     F#
You tell me you want me
     G#
You need it now
     D#m
You know that you've got me
        Fm
You've locked me down
     F#                  G#
You tell me you want me now

Chorus:
Is it desire (it desire),
or is it love that I'm feeling for you?
I want desire (I want desire)
'Cause your love only gets me abused
Is it desire (is it desire),
or is it love that I'm feeling for you
(that I'm feeling for you)?
I want desire
I wanna see what you're willing to lose
(oh, what you're willing to lose)
