Lyrics

[00:19.29] Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
[00:27.60] You been out ridin' fences for so long now
[00:35.73] Oh, you're a hard one
[00:38.63] But I know that you got your reasons
[00:43.76] These things that are pleasin' you
[00:48.26] Can hurt you somehow
[00:52.01]
[00:54.29] Don't you draw the queen of diamonds boy
[00:58.39] She'll beat you if she's able
[01:01.86] You know the queen of hearts is always your best bet
[01:07.30]
[01:09.80] Now it seems to me, some fine things
[01:13.86] Have been laid upon your table
[01:17.77] But you only want the ones that you can't get
[01:24.43] Desperado, oh, you ain't gettin' no younger
[01:33.61] Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin' you home
[01:42.30] And freedom, oh freedom well,
[01:46.09] that's just some people talkin'
[01:49.87] Your prison is walking through this world all alone
[01:56.90]
[02:00.09] Don't your feet get cold in the winter time?
[02:04.34] The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine
[02:08.25] It's hard to tell the night time from the day
[02:16.09] You're losin' all your highs and lows
[02:19.75] Ain't it funny how the feeling goes away?
[02:29.16]
[02:30.16] Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
[02:39.10] Come down from your fences, open the gate
[02:46.66] It may be rainin', but there's a rainbow above you
[02:54.38] You better let somebody love you
[02:58.98] (let somebody love you)
[03:02.16] You better let somebody love you
[03:07.88] before it's too late
[03:18.29]
[03:22.92]
[03:28.98]
