The Desperate Woman

THE DESPERATE WOMAN - Written by Carroll Bryant

You look at me

I look away

I don't think that there's anything more to say

You are the life of the party

And I am the one who wants to leave

You touch my arm

I slap your face

I do believe that you like it that way

You are the one who is lonely

And I am the one who won't believe

And you're a desperate woman tonight

Looking for a desperate man

Why you holding on so tight?

I'm not the man that you think I am

You're a desperate woman tonight

I can see it in your eyes

Don't look now but the party is over

For me

Time to say goodbye

You try to play the game

I make the rules

I'm not your average guy or next door fool

Gullible is as gullible does

Dreams push you to fall in love

And you're a desperate woman tonight

Looking for a desperate man

Why you holding on so tight?

I'm not the man that you think I am

You're a desperate woman tonight

I can see it in your eyes

Don't look now but the party is over

For me

Time to say goodbye

What do you fear?

Is it loneliness?

I'm not interested dear

And I am serious 

You're spilling your drink all over the floor

And I don't wanna talk to you no more

You look at me 

I look away

You touch my arm

I slap your face

You look at me

You're a desperate woman tonight

Looking for a desperate man

Why you holding on so tight?

I'm not the man that you think I am

You're a desperate woman tonight

I can see it in your eyes

Don't look now but the party is over

For me

Time to say goodbye

Have a very good night
