Desperate In Love
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It's happened since the world began
That craziness that we call love
For every woman there's a man
Who thinks she hung the stars above
There is magic in this moonstruck amnesia
How soon we forget
The last time we got our heart broken
And we have no control
We drive with no brakes
When your heart's at the wheel
How reckless we race
Crashing and burning
Then rising above
You'd beg, steal and borrow
When you're desperate in love
How can any force match the power of love
It's the pleasure everyone is guilty of
It's a state of confusion
Delusion illusion
Just brace for your heart to be broken
And we have no control
We drive with no brakes
When your heart's at the wheel
How reckless we chase
Crashing and burning
Then rising above
You'd beg, steal and borrow
When you're desperate in love
Look in my eyes, tell me what do you see
The light of a thousand desires
Deep in your smile, life's your soul's mystery
That draws me right into your fire
And we have no control
We drive with no brakes
When your heart's at the wheel
How reckless we race
Crashing and burning
Then rising above
You'd beg, steal and borrow
When you're desperate in love
And we have no control
We drive with no brakes
When your heart's at the wheel
How reckless we race
Crashing and burning
Then rising above
You'd beg, steal and borrow
When you're desperate, you're desperate
And we have no control
When your heart's at the wheel
When you're desperate, you're desperate
And we have no control
When your heart's at the wheel
