Eric Carmen - Desperate Fools lyrics

(eric carmen)

I've been up too high

I've been down too low

I've been searchin' for somethin'

With nowhere to go

Thought I'd make it alone

But I'm so far from home

In a town full of desperate fools

Ohthe sun beats down

On the l.a. scene

But you can't feel the cold

When the grass looks so green

And the games that I've played

Were not wort what I paid

In a town full of desperate fools

I've been takin' my life

One day at a time

Tryin' to piece it all together

But I know in my mind

That I'm startin' to be

What they want me to be

And I wonder sometimes

What's becoming of me

I've been takin' my life

One day at a time

Tryin' to piece it all together

But I know in my mind

That I'm startin' to be

What they want me to be

And I wonder sometimes

What's becoming of me

'cause I've been up too high

I've been down too low

I've been searchin' for somethin'

With nowhere to go

And I suppose it's been fun

But I guess I'm just one

In a town full of desperate fools

A town full of desperate fools
