Desperado

By the Eagles

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
The queen of hearts is always your best bet
How it seems to me some fine thing
Have been laid upon your table
But you only want the ones you can't get

Desperado
Oh you ain't getting no younger
Your pain and your hunger
They're driving you home, freedom, ah, freedom
That's just some people talking
You're prisons walking thru 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
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
