When Love Comes To Town — текст песни (U 2 and B.b. King)

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.
