Desper ado, why don't you c ome to your sen ses ?
You been out ridin'fen ces for s o long now
Oh, you're a hard one , I know that you got your rea sons,
These things that are ple asin'you can h urt you s omehow
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 you can't get
Desp erado , oh you ain't gett in'no younger,
Your pain and your hu nger, they're drivin'you h ome
And freedom , well, that's just some people ta lkin'
Your prison is wa lkin'through this w orld all a lone
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 losin'all your h ighs and lows
Ain't it funny how the feelin'goes aw ay
Desp erado , wh y don't you come to your senses
Come down from your fe nces, open the g ate
It may be rainin' , but there's a rainbow abov e you
You better let some body love you,
You better let some body love you be fore it's too l ate.
