| Lyrics |
I was a sailor
I was lost at sea
I was under the waves before love rescued me.I was a fighter
I could turn on a threadbut I stand accused of the things I've said.
When love comes to town I want to jump that trainwhen loves come to town I want to catch that flame.
Maybe I was wrong to ever let you downbut I did what I did before love came to town.I used to make love under a red sunset
I was making promises I was soon to forget.
She was pale as the lace of her wedding gownbut I left her standing before love came to town.
When love comes to town I want to jump that trainwhen loves come to town I want to catch that flame.
Maybe I was wrong to ever let you downbut I did what I did before love came to town.
When I woke up I was sleeping on the street
I felt the world was dancingand I was dirt beneath their feet.
When I looked up I saw the devil looking downbut my Lord he played guitar the day love came to town.I was there when they crucified my Lord
I held the scabbard when the soldier drew his sword.I threw the dice when they pierced his sidebut I've seen love conquer the great divide.
When love comes to town I want to jump that trainwhen loves come to town.
