You've
been out riding fences for so long now.Oh,
you're a hard one but I know you've got your
reasons.These
things that are pleasing you will 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.
But it seems to me some
fine things have been laid upon your table but
you only want the things that you can't get .Desperado,
you know you ain't gettin' no younger. Your
pain and your hunger they're drivin' you home,and
freedom, oh freedom well that's just some people
talkin'.Your
prison is walkin' through this world 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 night time from the day.You're
losin' all your highs and lows,ain't it
funny how the feelin' goes away?Desperado,
why don't you come to your senses?Come
down from your fences and open the gate. It may
be rainin' but there's a rainbow above you.You
better let somebody love you, let somebody love
you.
Let somebody love you
before it's too late.
Long Long Time
Love will
abide,
take things
in stride,
sounds like
good advice
but there's
no one near my side
And time
washes clean,
love's
wounds unseen,
that's what
someone told me
but I don't
know what it means
Cause I've
done everything
I know to
try and make you mine
and I think
I'm gonna love you
for a long
long time
Caught in
my fears,
blinking
back the tears,
I can't say
you hurt me
when you
never let me near
And I never
drew,
one
response from you,
all the
while you fell all over
girls you
never knew
Cause I've
done everything I know
to try and
make you mine
and I think
it's gonna hurt me
for a long
long time
Wait for
the day,
you go
away,
knowing
that you warned me,
of the
price I'd have to pay, and
Life's full
of flaws
who knows
the cause
livin' in
the memory
of a love
that never was
And I've
done everything I know
to try and
change your mind
and I think
I'm gonna miss you
for a long
long time
Cause I've
done everything I know
to try and
make you mine
and I think
I'm gonna love you
for a long
long time
