Desperado

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
You know the queen of hearts is always your best bet
Now it seems to me some fine things have been laid upon you table
But you only want the ones that you can't get

Desperado, oh you ain't getting no younger
Your pain and your hunger they're driving you home
And freedom, well that's just some people talking
Your prison is walking through this world all alone

Don't your feet get cold in the winter time
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine
It's hard to tell the night time from the day
Yeah, 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 before it's too late
