U 2 & B.b. King - When Love Comes To Town 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 thread but I stand accused of the things I've said. When love comes to town I want to jump that train when loves come to town I want to catch that flame. Maybe I was wrong to ever let you down but 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 gown but I left her standing before love came to town. When love comes to town I want to jump that train when loves come to town I want to catch that flame. Maybe I was wrong to ever let you down but 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 dancing and I was dirt beneath their feet. When I looked up I saw the devil looking down but 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 side but I've seen love conquer the great divide. When love comes to town I want to jump that train when loves come to town. U 2 & B.b. King Lyrics When Love Comes To Town Lyrics
