we belted out the lyrics to desperado, not always in tune
nor in time
nor in harmony
but the three of us boys did it justice
because we pined as we sang
no, i only guessed at what they were pining at
and the things they regretted
and their hopes that were dashed
but only sad people sing desperado
only people missing people
good thing i'm not really one of them, phew
i just belt out the words, and second guess the feelings
thank goodness i have my peace
desperado, why don't you come to your senses
you've been out riding fences, for so long now
