Desperado - The Carpenters
Desperado
Why don't you come to
your senses
You 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
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
Oh you ain't gettin'
no younger
You pain and your hunger
They're driving you home
Freedom Ah freedom
That's just
some people talking
You're prisoners 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
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
And 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
