Now just look how much you gave
The people that you tried to save
They don't even wanna talk to you
And when you see just what you are
A desecrated fallen star
A bad man with something to prove

Better stop, don't you realize
It's yourself you compromise
And it's gonna take more than a lot
To give good as you got

Desperado, how will the wind blow
You've got the fire, it's time to make a stand
Desperado, where did your love go?
Filled with desire, it's time to tip your hand

As you look back at the lies
How your love was pushed aside
You were beaten 'til you broke in two

Now as you climb out of your tomb
Your broken heart is filled with gloom
Do they know just what you're gonna do?

Better stop before you make a move
Think what you stand to lose
I know you're mad because you were burned
But is there something that you've learned?

Desperado, how will the wind blow
You've got the fire, time to make a stand
Desperado, where did your love go?
Filled with desire, it's time to tip your hand

Desperado
Desperado
Desperado
Desperado
