The Desperate Kingdom of Love Songtext
von Giant Sand

Oh-oh love, you were a sickly child
And how the wind knocked you down
Put on your spurs, swagger around
In the desperate kingdom of love


Holy water cannot help you now
Mysterious eyes won′t help you
Selling your reason will not bring you through
The desperate kingdom of love

There's another who looks from behind your eyes
I learn from you how to hide
In the desperate kingdom of love

At the end of this burning world
You′ll stand proud, face upheld
But I'll follow you, to Heaven or Hell
And I'll become, like a boy
In the desperate kingdom of love
