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
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
The queen of hearts 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

Desperado
You ain't getting younger
Your pain and your hunger are driving you home
And freedom, oh, freedom
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 nighttime from the day
And 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 and open the gate
It may be raining
But there's a rainbow above you
You better let somebody love you
Let somebody love you before it's too late
