Desperado Lyrics

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
You've been out riding fences for so long now,
Oh, you're a hard one,
But I know that you've got your reasons,
These things that are pleasing you,
Can hurt you somehow.

Don't you draw the Queen of diamonds boy,
She'll beat you if she's able,
Know the Queen of heart's is always your best bet,
Now it seems to me some fine things,
Have been laid upon your table,
But you only want the ones that you can't get,
Oh, Desperado, Oh you getting no younger,
Your pain and your hunger they're driven you home,
And freedom, Oh freedom just some people talking now,
Your prison is walking now this world all alone.

And don't your feet get cold in the winter time?
The sky won't show the sun, won't shine,
It's hard to tell the night time from the day,
You're losing all your highs and lows,
Ain't it funny how the feeling goes away.

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
Come down from your fences, open the gate,
It may be raining, but there's a rainbow above you,
You better let somebody love you,
(You better let somebody love you)
You better let somebody love you,
Before it's too late.

(Merci à Linda Lawrence pour cettes paroles)
