The queen of diamonds let you down,

She was just an empty fable

The queen of hearts you say you never met

Your twisted fate has found you out

And it' fin'lly turned the tables

Stole your dreams and paid you with regret

Desperado

(Is there gonna be anything left, is there gonna be anything?)

You sealed your fate up a long time ago

(Ain't it hard when you're all alone in the center ring?)

Now there's no time left to borrow

(Is there gonna be anything left?)

Only stardust

(Maybe tomorrow)

Maybe tomorrow

Maybe tomorrow

Desperado

Desperado



Well the stage was set the sun was sinkin' low down

As they came to town to face another showdown

The lawmen cleared the people from the streets
