Lyrics
She fixes her makeup, checks her stockings for runs
There's a guy near the jukebox, could he be the one?
Biology's ticking, she's just heeding the call
But her heart is so desperate she always heads straight for a fall
It's the far side of midnight, his luck never came
It must be his drinking, what else can he blame?
He scours the dance floor, his pride keeps him tall
But his eyes are so desperate he feels like he's two inches small
DESPERATE HEARTS HANG HEAVY, DESPERATE EYES ARE BLIND
DESPERATE SOULS RUN WILD TILL THEY LEAVE THEMSELVES BEHIND
DESPERATE HANDS KEEP REACHING JUST TO FIND AN EMPTY GLOVE
'CAUSE THERE'S NO ONE TO RETURN THEIR DESPERATE LOVE
So happy she met him, she takes off her dress
He feels kinda nervous, but at last a success
They wrestle together, Mary Ellen and Paul
But their passion's so desperate, these names they will never recall
CHORUS
She wakes with a smile that soon disappears
He's halfway to work now, cursing too many beers
She heats up the coffee, he lights a Pall Mall
Both never to realize it's not love at all
Desperate love is not love at all
