To me, lust is a physical attraction/reaction and desire is set in the mind.

Lust is excessive desire, beyond normal limits.

Both mean to want. By implication, "lust" implies impurities in the nature of that which one may want. I noticed another of your questions which placed the words in a Scriptural context. Perhaps "thirst" might be a better word.

Lust ==craving, like being very, very hungry. Lust for food or anything else that you cannot get off of your mind.
Desire==want, like you want a piece of cake or something as a treat.

Lust is an intense desire for sex... desire can be for anything (chocolate cake, for example)

Technically, nothing, except perhaps the degree or intensity.
