Desperado
일團있뚠The Eagles Lyrics

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
Why don't you realize that what you're doing is hurting you?

You been out ridin' fences for so long now
You've been living your life running away from your problems.

Oh, you're a hard one
You're a tough person to understand and get through to.

But I know that you got your reasons
I know that you have your motives for acting the way you do.

These things that are pleasin' you
The things that you think will make you happy.

Can hurt you somehow
Can actually end up causing you pain.

Don't you draw the Queen of Diamonds, boy
Don't go after things that are dangerous and could hurt you.

She'll beat you if she's able
Those things will overpower and defeat you.

You know the Queen of Hearts is always your best bet
Choosing things that are loving and kind will always be the smartest choice.

Now, it seems to me some fine things
There have been some good opportunities that have come your way.

Have been laid upon your table
You've had chances to succeed and be happy.

But you only want the ones that you can't get
But you seem to only desire the things that are out of reach.

Desperado, oh, you ain't gettin' no younger
You're not getting any younger, and you need to start making positive changes in your life.

Your pain and your hunger, they're drivin' you home
Your emotional and physical suffering is leading you back to where you started.

And freedom, oh freedom, well that's just some people talkin'
The idea of freedom is often talked about, but is hard to obtain in reality.

Your prison is walking through this world all alone
Your solitude is the thing that's holding you back and keeping you trapped.

Don't your feet get cold in the winter time?
Don't you ever feel lonely and isolated?

The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine
Even the weather seems to be reflecting your dreary mood.

It's hard to tell the night time from the day
Life seems to blur together and lose meaning.

You're losin' all your highs and lows
You're becoming numb to the ups and downs of life.

Ain't it funny how the feeling goes away?
It's strange how quickly emotions can fade and disappear.

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
Why don't you wake up and make some changes in your life?

Come down from your fences, open the gate
Stop running away from your problems and let people into your life.

It may be rainin', but there's a rainbow above you
Even if things seem rough now, there is still hope for happiness in the future.

You better let somebody love you (let somebody love you)
You need to allow someone to care for you and show you love.

You better let somebody love you
Otherwise you may never find true happiness and fulfillment.

Before it's too late
Before it's too late and you've wasted your life chasing after things that don't truly matter.
