one of those nights. for one of those songs:


desperado--
why don’t you come to your senses?
you've been out riding fences
for so long now.

oh, you’re a hard one.
i know that you got your reasons,
these things that are pleasin' you
can hurt you somehow.


don’t you draw the
queen of diamonds, boy
she’ll beat you if she’s able
you know the queen of hearts is always your best bet

now it seems to me,
some fine things have been
laid upon your table
but you only want the ones that you can’t get


desperado--
oh, you ain’t getting no youger
your pain and your hunger,
they’re driving you Home

and freedom, oh Freedom--
well, that’s just some people talkin'
your prison is walking through
this world all alone


don’t your feet get cold in the winter time?
the Sky won’t snow and the Sun won’t shine,
it’s hard to tell the Night time from the Day.
you’re loosin’ all your highs and lows
ain’t it funny how the feeling goes away?


desperado--
why don’t you come to your senses?
come down from your fences,
open the gate.

it may be raining,
but there’s a rainbow above you--
you better let somebody love you,
before it’s too late.


desperado, eagles
