Too good to quit
Red lips and all that wit
But something in your eye
Screams out this isn't right
You whisper in my ear
Three words that I've come to fear
I'm playing with fire
No heart and all desire
Oh - what do you do when desperation finds you?
What do you do?
Whoa-oh
What do you do when desperation finds you?
Because lately it's been driving me crazy
My back's against the wall
I want love but not the fall
Can't stand to be lonely
So don't think that you own me
I just want you to hold me
Without questioning if you can have it all
Don't know your name
Who you are or who's to blame
'Cuz it feels so faceless
But fills the empty spaces
Been sleeping with strangers
Ignoring all the dangers
I might get burned if
There is a lesson to be learned
So what do you do when desperation finds you?
What do you do?
Whoa-oh what do you do when desperation finds you?
Because lately it's been driving me crazy
My back's against the wall
I want love but not the fall
Can't stand to be lonely
So don't think that you own me
I just want you to hold me
Without questioning if you can have it all
Slow down child
Don't let your love run wild
This kind of thing don't last
And it's much too fast so
Slow down child
Your love runs wild
When you're afraid
Of being alone
Lately it's been driving me crazy
My back's against the wall
I want love but not the fall
Can't stand to be lonely
So don't think that you own me
I just want you to hold me
Without questioning if you can have it all
No you can't have it all
