Desperate Love Lyrics - Waite John

No guardian angel looking down on me tonight 

I'm on the streets again, an' 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 counterfeit, 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 

'Cos 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 

(Solo) 

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 

'Cos 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...
