Rainbow - Desperate Heart

The brainchild of former Deep Purple guitarist Ritchie Blackmore, Rainbow quickly developed into one of the '70s most successful heavy metal bands behind charismatic front man Ronnie James Dio. Together, the duo would produce a string of acclaimed albums which are still considered classics of the genre. But the group would change their musical approach numerous times following the singer's departure, eventually confusing and alienating much of their audience. Releasing eight albums during it's decade long run, the band finally came to an end when Blackmore departed to rejoin his old Deep Purple comrades in a full-fledged reunion in 1984. And while the impact of Rainbow's influence has faded with the intervening decades, theirs was a crucial chapter in the development of heavy metal and hard rock.

Yesterday you were here by my side
Nothing to prove and nothing left to hide
You promised me there would be no goodbye
But now I find another set of lies
Babe you must be crazy
How could you be so blind
Why would you deceive me
Now you're saying that you're leaving me behind
So strong I'm not gonna run away
Want you to know that I'm gonna break through
How long can I go on this way
There's nothing I can do

Desperate heart think you better hold out
Torn apart I was left to bleed
Don't start feeling you were sold out
Now you better face reality
Did my best did the best that I could
It's all been wasted just misunderstood
You keep on talking
Your words are sounding so smoothe
Why don't you say it
You just want to cut me loose
Oh don't say that you love me
Don't wont to hear that you tried
Oh don't tell me that you need me
Don't want to hear none of your alibis
So strong I'm not gonna run away
Want you to know that I'm gonna break through
How long can I go on this way
There's nothing I can do

Desperate heart think you better hold out
Torn apart I was left to bleed
Don't start feeling you were sold out
Now you better face reality

So strong I'm not gonna run away
Want you to know that I'm gonna break through
How long can I go on this way
Tell me what can I do
Nothing I can do

Desperate heart think you better hold out
Torn apart I was left to bleed
Don't start feeling you were sold out
Now you better face reality
(Twice)
