Desperate Love

(álbum: View From The Ground - 1982)

Secret calls long after hours
Suspicions rise, why does she whisper
Someone's hiding something
What's going on

She smiles and finds an excuse to go out
Meets him somewhere on the edge of town
For one more night of real love
How can it be wrong

'Cause when they turn out the lights
In their rented room tonight
Two lovers won't be lonely anymore

When it's a desperate love, risk is high
Cheating hearts making alibis
In the shadows someone is waiting
Waiting for their lover to come tonight

A cheater's conscience has no pride
To spend the night with another man's wife
Lie to his best friend and never think twice
He knows where to find what he longs to have
And do anything 'cause he wants her that bad
Love has many faces, faces to hide

'Cause when they turn out the lights
In their rented room tonight
Two lovers won't be lonely anymore

When it's a desperate love, risk is high
Cheating hearts making alibis
In the shadows someone is waiting
Waiting for their lover to come tonight

When it's a desperate love, risk is high
Cheating hearts making alibis
In the shadows someone is waiting
Waiting for their lover to come tonight

When it's a desperate love (desperate love), risk is high
Cheating hearts making alibis
In the shadows someone is waiting
Waiting for their lover to come tonight

When it's a desperate love (desperate love), risk is high
Cheating hearts making alibis
In the shadows someone is waiting
Waiting for their lover to come tonight ...
