Desperate Ones Lyrics - Nina Simone

Jacques Brel, Jouannest, Eric Blau, Mort Shuman 

They hold each others hands 

They walk without a sound 

Down forgotten streets 

Their shadows kiss the ground 

Their footsteps 

sing a song 

Tat's ended before it's begun 

They walk without a sound 

The Desperate Ones 

Just like the tiptoe moth 

That dance before the flame 

They burn their hearts so much 

That death is just a name 

And if love calls again 

So foolishly they run, they run, they run 

They run, they run, they run, they run 

They run without a sound 

The Desperate Ones 

I know the road tey're on 

I've walked their crooked mile 

A hundred times or more 

I drank their cup of bile 

They watch their dreams go down 

Be hind the settin sun 

Yeh, yeh, yeh, they walk without a sound 

The Desperate Ones 

Le he who threw the stone at them 

Stand up and take a bow 

He knows the verb "to love" 

Beu he'll never, never, never know how 

On the bridge of nevermore 

They disappear one by one 

Disappear without a sound 

The Desperate Ones 

And underneath the bridge 

The water's sweet and deep 

This is their journey's end 

The land of endless sleep 

They cry to us for help 

We think it's all in fun, 

They cry, they cry, they cry, they cry 

Without a sound 

They disappear without a sound 

They walk without a sound without a sound 

Disappear without a sound 

Cry without a sound 

Yai, yaj, yaj, yaj, yaj, yaj, yaj 

The Desperate Ones
