VICTIM OF LOVE

 

What kind of love have you got?

You should be home but you’re not.

A room full of noise and dangerous boys

still make you thirsty and hot.

I heard about you and that man.

There’s just one thing I don’t understand.

You say he’s a liar and he put out your fire,

how come you still got his gun in your hand?

 

      Victim of love, I see a broken heart.

      You got your stories to tell.

      Victim of love, it’s such an easy part

      and you know how to play it so well.

 

Some people never come clean,

I think you know what I mean, oh.

You’re walkin’ the wire, pain and desire,

lookin’ for love in between.

Tell me your secrets, I’ll tell you mine.

This ain’t no time to be cool.

And tell all your girlfriends, your "been around the world" friends

that talk is for losers and fools.

 

      Victim of love, I see a broken heart.

      I could be wrong but I’m not, no, I’m not.

      Victim of love, we’re not so far apart.

      Show me what kind of love have you got.

 

      Victim of love, I see a broken heart.

      I could be wrong but I’m not.

      Victim of love, we’re not so far apart.

      What kind of love have you got?

 

      Victim of love, you’re just a victim of love.

      I could be wrong but I’m not, no, I’m not.

      Victim of love, now you’re a victim of love.

      What kind of love have you got?

      What kind of love have you got?

      What kind of love have you got?

The Sad Cafe

 

Out in the shiny night the rain was

softly falling

The tracks that ran down the boulevard

had all been washed away

Out of the silver light the past came

softly calling

And I remembered the times we spent

Inside the Sad Cafe

 

Oh, it seemed like a holy place

Protected by amazing grace

And we would sing right out loud

The things we could not say

We thought we could change this world

With words like "love" and "freedom"

We were part of the lonely crowd

Inside the Sad Cafe

 

Oh, expecting to fly

We would meet on that beautiful shore

in the sweet by and by

 

Some of their dreams came true

Some just passed away

And some of them stayed behind

Inside the Sad Cafe

 

The clouds rolled in and hid that shore

Now that Glory Train, it don’t

stop here no more

 

Now I look at the years gone by

And wonder at the powers that be

I don’t know why fortune smiles on some

And lets the rest go free

 

Maybe the time has drawn the faces I recall

But things in this life change very

slowly if they ever change at all

There’s no use in asking why

It just turned out that way

So meet me at midnight, baby

Inside the Sad Cafe

Why don’t you meet me at midnight, baby

Inside the Sad Cafe

Seven Bridges Road

 

There are stars in the southern sky

Southward as you go.

There is moonlight and moss in the trees

Down the Seven Bridges Road.

 

Now I have loved you like a baby...

Like some lonesome child,

And I have loved you in a tame way,

And I have loved you wild.

 

Sometimes there’s a part of me

Has to turn from here and go...

Running like a child from these warm stars

Down the Seven Bridges Road.

 

There are stars in the southern sky.

And if ever you decide you should go,

There is a taste of time sweet and honey

Down the Seven Bridges Road.

LIFE IN THE FAST LANE

 

He was a hard-headed man he was brutally handsome

And she was terminally pretty

She held him up and he held for ransom

In the heart of the cold, cold city

He had a nasty reputation as a cruel dude

They said he was ruthless said he was crude

They had one thing in common

They were good in bed

She said, “Faster, faster.

“The lights are turning red.”

 

Life in the fast lane

Surely make you lose your mind

Life in the fast lane

 

Are you with me so far?

 

Eager for action hot for the game

The calling attraction the drop of the name

They knew all the right people

They took all the right pills

They threw outrageous parties

They paid heavenly bills

There were lines on the mirror, lines on her face

She pretended not to notice she was caught up in the race

Out every evening until it was light

He was too tired to make it she was too tired to fight about it

 

Life in the fast lane

Surely make you lose your mind

Life in the fast lane

Life in the fast lane

Everything all the time

Life in the fast lane

 

Glowing and burning blinded by thirst

They didn’t see the stop sign

Took a turn for the worse

She said, “Listen baby.  You can hear the engine rev.

“We’ve up and down this highway, haven’t seen a goddamn thing.”

He said, “Call the doctor.  I think I’m gonna crash.”

“The doctor say he’s coming but you gotta pay in cash.”

They were rushing down that freeway,

Messed around and got lost

They didn’t care they were just dieing to get off and it was

 

Life in the fast lane

Surely make you lose your mind

Life in the fast lane

Life in the fast lane

Everything all the time

Life in the fast lane

 

Life in the fast lane

Life in the fast lane

I Can’t Tell You Why

 

Look at us baby, up all night

Tearing our love apart

Aren’t we the same two people who lived

through years in the dark? Ooh-oh

Every time I try to walk away

Somethin’ makes me turn around and stay

And I can’t tell you why

 

When we get crazy, it just ain’t right

(Try to keep your head, little girl)

Girl, I get lonely too

You don’t have to worry, just hold on tight

(Don’t get caught in your little world)

‘Cause I love you

 

Nothin’s wrong as far as I can see

We make it harder than it has to be

And I can’t tell you why -no,baby

I can’t tell you why

I can’t tell you why

 

Every time I try to walk away

Somethin’ makes me turn around and stay

And I can’t tell you why, no, no, baby

I can’t tell you why

I can’t tell you why

I can’t tell you why
