Desperado

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
You've been out ridin' fences for so long now
Oh, you're a hard one
But I know that you got your reasons.
These things that are pleasin' 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 your table
But you only want the ones that you can't get
Desperado, ah, you ain't gettin' no younger
Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin' you home
Freedom, oh, freedom. That's just some people talkin'
Your prison is walking through this world all alone
Don't your feet get cold in the wintertime?
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine.
It's hard to tell the nighttime from the day
You're losin' 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 rainin', but there's a rainbow above you
You better let somebody love you
You better let somebody love you
Before it's too late
