I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'to have a place' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.

'live with desire' is the wordplay.
'live' becomes 'be' (synonyms).
'with' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'desire' becomes 'long' (longing is a kind of desiring).
'be'+'long'='BELONG'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for belong that I've seen before include "Be rightly assigned (to)" , "'Be part of, fit in (6)'" , "accepted socially" , "Be owned by" , "To be entirely suitable (to place)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Independent.
