Desperado
Sleep Alley Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
kahit na pinagtabuyan ang pag-ibig ko
makahanap man ng bago,
ikaw pa rin ang pipiliin ko
Oh, Desperado
Umaasa pa rin sayo
Oo, baka sakali lang,
Alam kong bale wala sayo,
tutal hindi naman ako ang mahal
Ngunit pinipilit ang sarili,
kahit sinasaktan mo na ako
Oh
Pero pag nakita na ang ngiti mo
Oh, Desperado
Umaasa pa rin sayo
Oo, baka sakali lang,
Matutunan mo rin na mahalin ako
These lyrics from Sleep Alley's song Desperado tell the story of unrequited love and the desperation that comes with it. The singer is still fixated on someone who has rejected their love, choosing instead to pursue a new relationship. Despite this, the singer cannot help but hope that their love interest will eventually come around and choose them. They are fully aware that they are not the one their love interest truly cares for, but they continue to cling to their love and hold out hope that they will one day be loved in return.
The word "desperado" in the chorus is a slang term for someone who is desperate or reckless, often in love or seeking love. The singer acknowledges that they are behaving in a desperate manner, continuing to pursue someone who is not interested in them. The use of this term emphasizes the intensity of the singer's feelings and the desperation they feel.
Overall, the lyrics speak to the universal experience of unrequited love and the pain and desperation that can come with it. The singer's struggle to let go and move on highlights the power that love can hold over us, even when it is not reciprocated.

Hanggang ngayon nakatitig pa rin sayo
Until now, I'm still staring at you
kahit na pinagtabuyan ang pag-ibig ko
even though my love has been rejected
makahanap man ng bago,
even if I find someone new,
ikaw pa rin ang pipiliin ko
I will still choose you
Oh, Desperado
Oh, hopeless romantic
Umaasa pa rin sayo
still hoping for you
Oo, baka sakali lang,
Yes, just perhaps
Matutunan mo rin na mahalin ako
You'll learn to love me eventually
Alam kong bale wala sayo,
I know I mean nothing to you
tutal hindi naman ako ang mahal
since I'm not the one you love
Ngunit pinipilit ang sarili,
But I'm forcing myself to
kahit sinasaktan mo na ako
even though you're hurting me already
Oh
Oh
Pero pag nakita na ang ngiti mo
But when I see your smile
Oh, Desperado
Oh, hopeless romantic
Umaasa pa rin sayo
still hoping for you
Oo, baka sakali lang,
Yes, just perhaps
Matutunan mo rin na mahalin ako
You'll learn to love me eventually

Hanggang ngayon nakatitig pa tin sa’yo
Kahit na pinagtabuyan ang pag-ibig ko
Makahanap man ng bago
Ikaw pa rin ang pipiliin ko
Oh, desperado
Umaasa pa rin sa iyo
Oo, baka sakali lang
Matutunan mo rin na mahalin ako
Alam kong balewala sa’yo
Tutal hindi naman ako ang mahal
Ngunit pinipilit ang sarili
Kahit sinasaktan mo na ako
Ohh, ohh, ohh, ohh,
Pero ‘pag nakita na ang ngiti mo
Oh, desperado
Umaasa pa rin sa iyo
Oo, baka sakali lang
Matutunan mo rin na mahalin ako
Oh, desperado
Desperado
