Desperada
Desperada,
Why do you ignore all your senses?
You've been up making fences, for
so long now.
Oh you’re a smart one, but I know
you've got your reasons.
Because these things that aren't
pleasing.
Aren't hurting you now.
Don't, you draw the king of spades
girl.
He'll beat you if he's able.
You know the king of hearts is
always your best bet.
Now it seems to me some good
friends,
Have been sat around your table.
But you only feel the ones who
haven’t yet.
Desperada,
No you can't take it any longer.
You’re feeling a hunger,
You’re leaving your home.
Oh freedom, Oh freedom, that’s what
people are talking
While others are blocking, you’re
all alone.
Your heart can get cold in that
wintertime.
The sky won't snow and the sun won't
shine.
It's like trading the nighttime for
the day.
You’re gaining all your views and
woes.
Ain't, it funny that soon, the
feeling goes, away.
Desperada,
Why don't you come to your senses?
Break down some old fences; it's
not to late.
It may not be shining, but there
are rainbows behind you.
So you should let that somebody
love you.
Before they don't wait.
Let that somebody love you.
Before they don't wait.
