Paroles: John Waite. Desperate Love.

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

Waite, John
