Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I was a sailor who was lost at sea
I was under the waves before love rescued me
I was a fighter who could turn on a thread
Now I stand accused of the things that I said
When love comes to town, I'm gonna jump that train
train when love comes to town I'm gonna 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 the red sunsets
I was making promises I would soon forget
She was pale as lace of her wedding gown
But I left her standing before love came to town
And I drew a juke joint when I heard a guitar scream
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
So when love comes to town, I'm gonna jump that train
When love comes to town, I'm gonna catch that flame
Maybe I was wrong to ever let you down,
but I did what I did before love came to town.
When love comes to town, I'm going to jump that train.
When love comes to town, I'm going to catch that flame.
Maybe I was wrong to ever let you down,
but I did what I did before love came to town.
'Cause there when they crucified my lord
I held a 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'm gonna catch that train
When love comes to town I'm gonna catch that plane
Maybe I was wrong to ever let you down
What I did, what I did before love came down
