QUIET

Desperado, why don't you come to your sensesYou've been out ridin fences for so long nowOh, you're a hard one, but I know that you've got your reasonsThese things that are pleasin' you can hurt you somehowDon't you draw the Queen of Diamonds boy, she'll beat you if she's ableYou know the Queen of Hearts is always your best betNow it seems to me some fine things have been laid upon your tableBut you only want the ones you can't getDesperado, you ain't gettin no youngerYour pain and your hunger, they're drivin you homeAnd freedom, oh freedom, well that's just some people talkin'Your prison is walking through this world all aloneDon't your feet get cold in the wintertimeThe sky won't snow and the sun won't shineIt's hard to tell the nighttime from the dayAnd you're losin all your highs and lowsAin't it funny how the feelin goes awayDesperado, why don't you come to your sensesCome down from your fences- open the gatesIt may be rainin, but there's a rainbow above youYou'd better let somebody love youLet somebody love youYou'd better let somebody love youbefore it's too late
