To Love Somebody

"Desperado", my favorite song. The eldest daughter in the play sang it, so

beautiful. The film I saw at the festival is still fresh in my memory.

Although the sun did not favor the immigrants home, they self

own way to dodge painful sadness. After all, there is always

bad luck buried in all directions in life , you and I are the same, only resistance...

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
You've been out riding fences for so long now
Oh, you're a hard one. I know that you got your reasons
These things that are pleasing you can hurt you somehow

Don' you draw the queen of diamonds, boy? She'll beat you if she's able
You know the queen of hearts is always your best bet
Now it seems to me, some fine things have been laid upon your table
But you only want the ones that you can't get

Desperado, oh, you ain't getting no youger
Your pain and your hunger, they're driving you home
And freedom, oh freedom well, that's just some people talking
Your prison is walking through this world all alone

Don't your feet get cold in the winter time?
The sky won't snow and the sun won't shine
It's hard to tell the night time from the day
You're loosing all your highs and lows
Ain't it funny how the feeling goes away?

Desperado, why don't you come to your senses?
Come down from your fences, open the gate
It may be raining, but there's a rainbow above you
You better let somebody love you, before it's too late...

In America quotes

  • Mateo: I'm an alien, like E.T., from a different planet. My skin is too sensitive for this Earth. The air is too hard for me.

    Ariel: Are you going home like E.T.?

    Mateo: I suppose I'm going home.

    Christy: [voiceover] It was as hard for Frankie to smile when the tumor was malignant as it was for my dad to cry after. But they both managed it. I'm going to switch this off now. It's not the way I want to see Frankie any more. Do you still have a picture of me in your head? Well, that's like the picture I want to have of Frankie. One that you can keep in your head forever. So when you go back to reality, I'll ask Frankie to please, please let me go.
