It may be raining but there's a rainbow above you
You're losing all your highs and lows
Your pain and your hunger are driving you home
You know you ain't getting younger
You better let somebody love you, let somebody love you
You've been out riding fences for so long now
Oh, you're a hard one
Your prison is walking through this world all alone
But you only want the things that you can't get
Why don't you come to your senses
But I know that you've got your reasons
Desperado
Don't you draw the queen of diamonds boy
Sky won't snow and the sun won't shine
And freedom, oh, freedom
Well, it seems to me some fine things
Come down from your fences, open the gate
Don't your feet get cold in the wintertime
These things that are pleasing you will hurt you somehow
The queen of hearts is always your best bet
Ain't it funny how the feeling goes away
She'll beat you if she's able
Well, that's just some people talking
Have been laid upon your table
Desperado
It's hard to tell the night time from the day
