Desperate Road

(album: Highway 101² - 1988)

It's all or nothing tonight, I see that look in your eyes
And no matter how much it takes you think that I'll pay the price
And maybe I'm past the point of caring
If I lose or if I win
And I'll admit I'm tempted
But I haven't given in

Desperate road that you would lead me down
Pretending you've got all the answers
When I know just as sure as I'm sure of my chances
You'll leave me stranded down some desperate road

It's easy to see who's a fool by the way that she falls
Desperate feelings feel better than nothing at all
And I know my heart's a liar
When it's asking me to choose
Between another night alone
And a lonely night with you

Desperate road that you would lead me down
Pretending you've got all the answers
When I know just as sure as I'm sure of my chances
You'll leave me stranded down some desperate road

Well I know just as sure as I'm sure of my chances
You'll leave me stranded down
You'll leave me stranded down
You'll leave me stranded down some desperate road
