John Waite - Desperate Love lyrics

rate me

No guardian angel looking down on me tonight

I'm on the streets again

And I can't tell wrong from right

I'm on the run from love

But I don't know what I'm running for

But it all looks alright when I'm standing at your door

This could be ecstacy

I've been dreaming of you

This could be reality

Tonight tonight

Desperate love

Got no reflection in the mirror anymore

I'm falling backwards

But I never hit the floor

Don't give me counterfeits

I need the real thing

This ain't a game no more

I'm bettin' everything

This could be ecstacy

I've been dreaming of you

This could be reality

Tonight tonight

Desperate love

Yeah desperate love

I don't feel I should fight

When you pull me through your door

You take me to your room

And show me what I'm living for

And I lose myself

But my heart keeps poundin'

If you won't take me now

Don't take me anymore

Cause I don't read books

But I know the score

This could be ecstacy

I've been dreaming of you

This could be reality tonight

You could be next to me

I've been waiting for you

This could be reality tonight

Yeah

I don't feel I should fight

When you pull me through your door

You take me to your room

And show me what I'm living for

And I lose myself

But my heart keeps poundin'

If you won't take me now

Don't take me anymore

Cause I don't need books

To know the score

You could be next to me

I've been dreaming of you

This could be ecstacy

Tonight tonight

Desperate love

Yeah

Desperate love

Desperate love

Yeah desperate love

Ooh yeah

Desperate love

Desperate desperate love

Desperate desperate love

Love

It's desperate desperate love
