But you only want the ones that you can't get
You're losin' all your highs and lows
Your prison is walkin' through this world all alone
You better let somebody love you
These things that are pleasin' you can hurt you somehow
You know the queen of hearts is always your best bet
Don't your feet get cold in the winter time?
Desperado, oh you ain't gettin' no younger
And freedom, oh freedom, well that's just some people talkin'
Have been laid upon your table
Ain't it funny how the feelin' goes away?
(Let somebody love you)
Now it seems to me, some fine things
Come down from your fences, open the gate
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine
Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin' you home
Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
Oh, you're a hard one but I know that you got your reasons
Don't you draw the queen of diamonds boy
She'll beat you if she's able
It may be rainin' but there's a rainbow above you
It's hard to tell the night time from the day
