"Desperado" lyrics

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, yeah I know that you got your reasons
These things that are pleasin' you can hurt you somehow

And 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 finer things have been laid upon your table
But you only want the ones you can't get

Desperado
No, you ain't gettin' no younger
Your pain and your hunger, they're driving you home
And freedom, oh freedom, well that's just some people talkin'
Your prison is walkin' through this world all alone

And 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
Yeah, you're losin' all your highs and lows
And it funny how the feeling goes away

Desperado
Why don't you come to your sense
Come down from the 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
Better let somebody love you
Before it's too late
