For the Sake of the Song
And I've been working all night long
I put my daughter on my knee, and she say
"Daddy what's wrong?"
I put my head on her shoulder
She whispers in my ear so sweet
You know what she says?
"Daddy you're a fool to cry
You're a fool to cry
And it makes me wonder why."
You know, I got a woman
And she lives in the poor part of town
and I go see her sometimes
And we make love, so fine
I put my head on her shoulder
She says, "Tell me all your troubles."
You know what she says? She sa
Desperate Heart
One night, one empty room, one man gettin' over you
One star, one lonely moon, I make a wish, I know will never come true
You call my name, and you beg me to hold you again
But the truth remains, I'm only a fool who can't help but pretend
Chorus:
It's all over but I'm holding on, I can't let go until the love is gone
It's all over but I keep holding on with a desperate heart
With my desperate heart
Some nights, I try in my mind, I see myself learning someone new
Still I know, I'm wasting my time, no one can take the place of you
So I close my eyes, I swear I feel you here by my side
But it's all only a lie, I need to believe for my heart to survive
It's all over but I'm holding on, I can't let go until the love is gone
It's all over but I keep holding on with a desperate heart
With my desperate heart, I keep holding on
(Guitar solo)
All this time I've been drowning in hopeless illusions I'm keeping inside
That someday you'll walk out of the shadows and back into my life
It's all over but I'm holding on, I can't believe your love for me is gone
It's all over but I keep holding on (With a desperate heart)
Yeah with my desperate heart, I can't let go until the love is gone
(All over but I'm holding on) I keep holding on
(All over but I'm holding on) I can't believe your love for me is gone
(All over but I keep holding on)
(All over but I'm holding on)
(All over but I keep holding on)...
