The Faint: "Desperate Guys" Lyrics

Was it more than attraction

And a physical lust?

Her loins, my imagination,

That first inconceivable touch



That I was planning,

I mean wishing, 

How embarassed I'd been

If you knew what I was thinking



And whoa when it started

my first thought was love

and not just lust

cause when I heard you speak I felt 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

I knew you knew I liked you



I knew you knew I liked you

I knew you knew, right

But 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 

We should stop



I crossed my fingers

But I didn't beg

Cause I knew you knew

I knew you knew I liked you



I knew you knew I liked you

I knew you knew, right

But I figured desperate guys

Never had a chance with you
