Eurovision 2000 Malta:
Claudette Pace - "Desire"
Desire
From the first day I saw you
To the last time we met
I've desired to hold you
Have you and make you mine
But to have and to hold
To love and to grow
It takes two hearts that beat
To the rhythm of one
When you push me away
I taste fear and pain
Turns my fire to smoke
With one word, with one stroke
Deep in my heart is desire to love
Deep in my soul is desire to grow
Deep in your smile is desire for more
Deep when we kiss, the feeling that can't be missed
Let me live, let me die
Let me laugh, let me cry
Let me burn in your fire
In flames of desire
Be my river of hope
My mountain of truth
Let me colour your life
With the colour of love
Deep in my heart is desire to love
Deep in my soul is desire to grow
Deep in your smile is desire for more
Deep when we kiss, the feeling that can't be missed
Dejjem ridtek
Dejjem xtaqtek
Lilek ћabbejt
Take me up, take me down
Take me into your arms
Spin the magic of love
With one word, with one smile
My desire runs deep
And I'm losing sleep
I wake up to the light
You're the key to my heart
Deep in my heart is desire to love
Deep in my soul is desire to grow
Deep in your smile is desire for more
Deep when we kiss, the feeling that can't be missed
(Deep in my heart is desire to love)
Deep in my soul
(Deep in my soul is desire to grow)
Deep in your smile is desire for more
Deep when we kiss, the feeling that cаn't be missed
Desire, desire, desire, deѕire love
Desire
From the first day I saw you
To the last time we met
I've desired to hold you
Have you and make you mine
But to have and to hold
To love and to grow
It takes two hearts that beat
To the rhythm of one
When you push me away
I taste fear and pain
Turns my fire to smoke
With one word, with one stroke
Deep in my heart is desire to love
Deep in my soul is desire to grow
Deep in your smile is desire for more
Deep when we kiss, the feeling that can't be missed
Let me live, let me die
Let me laugh, let me cry
Let me burn in your fire
In flames of desire
Be my river of hope
My mountain of truth
Let me colour your life
With the colour of love
Deep in my heart is desire to love
Deep in my soul is desire to grow
Deep in your smile is desire for more
Deep when we kiss, the feeling that can't be missed
I've always wanted you
I've always desired you
You're the one I've always loved
Take me up, take me down
Take me into your arms
Spin the magic of love
With one word, with one smile
My desire runs deep
And I'm losing sleep
I wake up to the light
You're the key to my heart
Deep in my heart is desire to love
Deep in my soul is desire to grow
Deep in your smile is desire for more
Deep when we kiss, the feeling that can't be missed
(Deep in my heart is desire to love)
Deep in my soul
(Deep in my soul is desire to grow)
Deep in your smile is desire for more
Deep when we kiss, the feeling that cаn't be missed
Desire, desire, desire, deѕire love
Noħlom
Mill-ewwel jum li rajtek
Għall-aħħar darba li iltqajna
Ħlomt li nżommok
Li jkolli lilek u nagħmlek tiegħi
Imma li jkolli u li jżommok
Li nħobb u li nikber
Tieħu żewġt iqlub li jħabbtu
Mar-ritmu ta' waħda
Meta timbottani lil hinn
Induq il-biżgħa u l-uġigħ
Nibdel in-nar tiegħi f'duħħan
B'kelma waħda, b'daqqa waħda
Fil-fond ta' qalbi noħlom li nħobb
Fil-fond ta' ruħi noħlom li nikber
Fil-fond ta' tbissimek noħlom għal aktar
Fil-fond ta' meta nitbewsu, il-gost li ma tistax timmissja
Ħallini ngħix, ħallini nmur
Ħallini nidħak, ħallini nibki
Ħallini ninħaraq fin-nar tiegħek
Fil-fjammi tal-ħolma
Kun ix-xmara ta' tama tiegħi
Il-muntanja tal-verità tiegħi
Ħallini nlewwen ħajtek
Bil-kulur tal-imħabba
Fil-fond ta' qalbi noħlom li nħobb
Fil-fond ta' ruħi noħlom li nikber
Fil-fond ta' tbissimek noħlom għal aktar
Fil-fond ta' meta nitbewsu, il-gost li ma tistax timmissja
Dejjem ridtek
Dejjem xtaqtek
Lilek ћabbejt
Ħudni 'l fuq, ħudni 'l isfel
Ħudni fi ħdanek
Dawwar il-maġija tal-imħabba
B'kelma waħda, bi tbissima waħda
Il-ħolma tiegħi tiġri fil-fond
U qed nitlef l-inqas
Inqum għad-dawl
Int il-muftieħ ta' qalbi
Fil-fond ta' qalbi noħlom li nħobb
Fil-fond ta' ruħi noħlom li nikber
Fil-fond ta' tbissimek noħlom għal aktar
Fil-fond ta' meta nitbewsu, il-gost li ma tistax timmissja
(Fil-fond ta' qalbi noħlom li nħobb)
Fil-fond ta' ruħi
(Fil-fond ta' ruħi noħlom li nikber)
Fil-fond ta' tbissimek noħlom għal aktar
Fil-fond ta' meta nitbewsu, il-gost li ma tistax timmisѕja
Noħlom, noħlom, noħlom, noħlom l-imħabbа
