Victim Of Love

(album: Saints An' Sinners - 1982)

I'm down on love
An' I don't give a damn,
I take my chances
Whenever I can
Like a lamb to the slaughter,
Another sacrifice,
For giving love to woman
With a heart stone cold as ice

I'm down on love
An' I'm clean out of pain,
I ain't no stranger
To the crying game
Too scared to suffer,
An' too blind to see,
But, I played with fire
An' I got what was coming to me

Now, one more heartache
Don't bother me,
Just one more lonely night
To drown in misery

I am a victim of love,
A victim of love,
Lord, I never thought
I'd be a victim of love
Victim of love, victim of love,
Lord, I never thought
I'd be a victim of love

I'm down on love
An' I feel like a fool
To beg for mercy
'Cos I broke the rules
So do me no favours
With your cool advice,
I know the losing cost,
An' I'll pay the price

One more heartache
Don't bother me
One more lonely night
To drown in misery

I am a victim of love,
A victim of love,
Lord, I never thought
I'd be a victim of love

Victim of love,
A victim of love,
Lord, I never thought
I'd be a victim of love

One more heartache
Don't bother me
One more lonely night
To drown in misery

Victim of love,
A victim of love,
Lord, I never thought
I'd be a victim of love...
