Desperation Lyrics

Desperation lyrics

Words and music by John Kay



When rain drops fall and you feel low

Ah, do you ever think it's useless

Do you feel like letting go

Do you ever sit and do you wonder

Will the world ever change

And just how long will it take

To have it all rearranged



Tell me why these things are still the same

Tell me why no one can seem to learn from mistakes



Take my hand if you don't know where your goin'

I'll understand, I've lost the way myself

Oh, don't take that old road it leads to nowhere

We must return before the clock strikes twelve



It's so easy to do nothin'

When you're busy night and day

Take a step in one direction 

And take a step the other way

So don't stop tryin' when you stumble

Don't give up should you fall

Keep on searchin' for the passway

That will lead you through the wall

Don't look back or you'll be left behind

Don't look back or you will never find peace of mind
