Desperation
Yearning Echoes: Miranda Lambert's Desperation Unveiled
Lyrics
Throw a dog a bone, I'll take it if I have to
Expressing willingness to accept even a small or insufficient offering or opportunity.
Go real fast like there's somewhere we can get to
Urging to move quickly as if there is a destination or goal to reach.
What's the use of standing right there on the edge if there ain't nowhere to fall?
Questioning the purpose of being on the edge if there is no risk or challenge.
What's the use of hangin' on tight to the phone if nobody might call?
Questioning the point of holding onto the phone tightly when there's no expectation of a call.

I'm still desperate for you

Tell it like a lie, live it like a movie

Give a heart away like it don't mean nothin' to me

What's the use of making all the plans that we made if you weren't gonna go?
