Lyrics for Desperate Guys

Was it more than attraction and a physical lust? Her loins, my imagination, that first inconceivable touch That I was planning - er I mean wishing - ah How embarrassed I'd been if you'd knew what I was thinking of And - whoa! - when it started my first thought was luck now it's lust because when I heard you speak I got warm In the evening I saw you You were warming the bass up Your hair covered your face up I was acting indifferent at the merch booth putting on make up We met up at a party in a swamp on a yacht I spun the helm but we were docked I crossed my fingers but I didn't beg 'cause I knew you knew 'cause I knew you knew I liked you I knew you knew I liked you I knew you knew it but I figured desperate guys never had a chance with you I figured desperate guys never had a chance with you Close to you, wishing We're conjoined at the tongue Can you hear me thinking? I should stop I crossed my fingers But I didn't beg 'cause I knew you knew 'cause I knew you knew I liked you I knew you knew I liked you I knew you knew it but I figured desperate guys never had a chance with you
