LOVE LIES

I was lost, then I found you I never thought it would be this way Showed you my heart, left it unguarded Like a thief in the night You stole it away Now you're gone the pain goes on and on I still hear you whispering to me Through the shadows of the night Love lies, you're just a victim of the headlines You're running on into a cold night Just a number to the love lies All alone you call it survival He lost at love to a stranger's lines Walking the streets searching with vengeance For a face that he dreams of night after night Time goes on all signs of life stolen Simple dreams were all broken Best of times become desperation But how many tears must you cry to survive Love lies, you're just a victim of the headlines You're running on into a cold night Just a number to the love lies Love lies, you're just a victim of the headlines You're running on into a cold night Just a number to the love lies They met late one night in the city Both men knew only one would stay Scratched a picture of a heart on a bullet And took his life away Love lies, you're just a victim of the headlines You're running on into a cold night Just a number to the love lies Love lies, you're just a victim of the headlines You're running on into a cold night Just a number to the love lies
