Desperate Love Lyrics - Singles - John Waite

No guardian angel looking down on me tonight 

I'm on the streets again 

And 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 counterfeits, 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 

'Cause 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 

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 

'Cause 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
