I was lost, then I found you

Never thought it would be this way

Showed you my heart, I left it unguarded

Like a thief in the night you stole it away Now you're gone

The pain goes on and on

And I still hear you whispering to me

Through the shadows of the night Love lies, you're just a victim of the headlines

You're running on into a cold night

You're just a number to the love lies All alone you call it survival

He lost at love to a stranger's lines

Walking the streets, he's searching with vengeance

For a face that he dreams of, night after night Time goes on, all signs of life stolen

Simple dreams were all broken

Best of times become desperation

But how many tears must you cry to survive Love lies, you're just a victim of the headlines

You're running on into a cold night

Just a number to the love lies, love lies Love lies, you're just another victim of the headlines

You're running on into a cold night

Just a number to the love lies, love lies They met late one night in the city

Both men knew only one would stay

Scratched a picture of a heart on a bullet

And took his life away Love lies, you're just another victim of the headlines

You're running on into a cold night

Just a number to the love lies, love lies Love lies, you're just a victim of the headlines

You're running on into a cold night

You're just a number to the love lies, love lies Love lies, headlines

You're running on into a cold night

You're just a number to the love lies
