U2 - When Love Comes To Town Lyrics

Submitted by: AUTO-ADD
Current Rating: None
This track recorded live on 24th November 1987

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
Now I stand accused of the things I've said

When love comes to town I'm gonna jump that train
When love comes to town I'm gonna catch that plane
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

Ran into a juke joint when I heard a guitar scream
The notes were turning blue - I was dazing in a dream
As the music played I saw my life turn around
That was the day before love came to town

When love comes to town [etc repeated]

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 [etc repeated]
