Burning Desire
Lana Del Rey Lyrics

(I've got a burning desire, come on tell me boy)

I drive fast, wind in my hair, push it to the limits 'cause I just don't care
I've got a burning desire for you, baby
(I've got a burning desire)

Every Saturday night I seem to come alive for you, baby
Santa Monica, I'm racing in the lights for you, baby
I drive fast, radio blares, have to touch myself to pretend you're there
Your hands were on my hips, your name is on my lips
Over over again, like my only prayer
(Come on tell me boy)

I've got a burning desire for you, baby
(I've got a burning desire, come on tell me boy)
I've got a burning desire for you, baby
(I've got a burning desire, come on tell me boy)

I drive fast, wind in my hair, push it to the limits 'cause I just don't care
I've got a burning desire for you, baby
(I've got a burning desire)

I'm driving fast, flash, everyone knows it
I'm trying to get to you, baby
I'm feeling scared and you know it

I'm driving fast, flash, everyone knows it
I'm trying to get to you, baby
I'm feeling scared and you know it

I'm driving fast, flash, everyone knows it
I'm trying to get to you, baby
I'm feeling scared and you know it

I'm driving fast, flash, everyone knows it
I'm trying to get to you, baby
I'm feeling scared and you know it

I've got a burning desire for you, baby
(I've got a burning desire, come on tell me boy)
I've got a burning desire for you, baby
(I've got a burning desire, come on tell me boy)

I drive fast, wind in my hair, push it to the limits 'cause I just don't care
I've got a burning desire for you, baby
(I've got a burning desire)

Every Saturday night I get dressed up to ride for you, baby
Cruising down the street on Hollywood and Vine for you, baby
I drive fast, wind in my hair, push it to the limits 'cause I just don't care
You ask me where I've been?
I been everywhere
I don't wanna be no where but here (Come on tell me boy)
I've got a burning desire for you, baby
(I've got a burning desire, come on tell me boy)
I've got a burning desire for you, baby
(I've got a burning desire, come on tell me boy)
I drive fast, wind in my hair, push it to the limits 'cause I just don't care
I've got a burning desire for you, baby
(I've got a burning desire)
Every Saturday night I seem to come alive for you, baby
Santa Monica, I'm racing in the lights for you, baby
I drive fast, radio blares, have to touch myself to pretend you're there
Your hands were on my hips, your name is on my lips
Over over again, like my only prayer
(Come on tell me boy)
I've got a burning desire for you, baby
(I've got a burning desire, come on tell me boy)
I've got a burning desire for you, baby
(I've got a burning desire, come on tell me boy)
I drive fast, wind in my hair, push it to the limits 'cause I just don't care
I've got a burning desire for you, baby
(I've got a burning desire)
I'm driving fast, flash, everyone knows it
I'm trying to get to you, baby
I'm feeling scared and you know it
I'm driving fast, flash, everyone knows it
I'm trying to get to you, baby
I'm feeling scared and you know it
I'm driving fast, flash, everyone knows it
I'm trying to get to you, baby
I'm feeling scared and you know it
I'm driving fast, flash, everyone knows it
I'm trying to get to you, baby
I'm feeling scared and you know it
I've got a burning desire for you, baby
(I've got a burning desire, come on tell me boy)
I've got a burning desire for you, baby
(I've got a burning desire, come on tell me boy)
I drive fast, wind in my hair, push it to the limits 'cause I just don't care
I've got a burning desire for you, baby

But you have to realize that someone this dynamic feels what she feels not bc of the one she talks about, but bc she's had that inside of her, and is unleashing it.

People saying Lana's songs are too sad and depressing. Why?? I'm a really happy and centred person, but I love listening to more sad and angry songs, and find the majority of 'happy' songs bland and boring. Songs like Lana del Rey's add an extra dimension of emotion. Of course everybody has different tastes, but just because these songs aren't so upbeat doesn't mean the should be written off!
