Paolo Nutini

Desperation

AlphabetLyrics.com


Desperation has a funny worth
Eyes rolling forward at the mind's rebirth
Desperation is a friend at hand
The reach for touch in this arid land.

Oh, but you, you know what you do
Yeah, you, and your dancing shoes
Oh, you, so good at writing tomorrow
You do anything you want to.

Desperation is the things we miss
It's the asteroid, it's a final kiss
Desperation is the disconnect
The warning signs for some self respect.

Oh, but you, you are so beautifully wired
Yeah, you, and your dancing shoes
Oh, you, so good at being desired
You do anything you want to.

Everything we miss
Everything we miss.

Desperation was my sanctuary
The empire state to my sanity
Desperation is a counter strike
Against the giants and the rats alike.

Oh, but you, you go clean of the shadows
Yeah, you, and your dancing shoes
Oh, you, so good at writing tomorrow
Would you, take me with you? you...

Desperation
Desperation.
