It was the third of June On that summer's day When I became a man At the hands of a girl Almost twice my age And she came to me Just like a morning sun And it wasn't so much her words as such As the way they were sung It was the way they were sung Desiree Oh, Desiree There I was found by the sweet passion sound Of your loving song Time was right, the night was long Remember, Desiree Oh, Desiree Somehow I knew I could only have you 'Til the morning light If only for that single night Sweet Desiree, you made it right Then came the fourth of June On that sleepless night Well I tossed and I turned while the thought of her burned Up and down my mind For she was there and gone Without one regret But she continues on like the words of a song I could not forget I could not forget Desiree Oh, Desiree There I was found by the sweet passion sound Of your loving song Time was right, the night was long Remember, Desiree Oh, Desiree And though somehow I knew I could only have you 'Til the morning light The night was long, the time was right Do you remember, Desiree Oh, Desiree ♪ Do you remember, Desiree
