Lyrics

(Love)
(Love)
(Love)
(Love) a-come on
(Love) a-come on
(Love) a-come on
(Love) a-come on
A-come on
Hey (a-come on)

She was a waitress, she looked real fine
The little temptress was so divine
A symphony of cheap perfume and pretty stale red wine
She can wait upon my table anytime
She was poetry in motion
Stiletto heels and nylons she moved up to the table
I could see she had for me a burger with my fries on

Love lies bleeding, yeah, listen to this
Love lies bleeding
Well we were parked outside a city bank
We found it all real funny
The car was running on full tanks
We stole all the money
She was a wicked wily waitress and she should be doing time
She was an ordinary waitress now she owns her own gold mine
How about that
Love lies bleeding, now listen to this
Love lies bleeding

She was a rebel without a cause
She was a girl who needed applause
Love in the future, love in the past
Hey, love in the future (love lies bleeding) love in the past
Love lies bleeding in our path
Love lies bleeding, can you believe that it gets worse
Love lies bleeding

She had a loud theatrical whisper
I had a one way ticket to Palookaville
She had an equally dangerous sister
I was out of my league, they were in for the kill
She was a wicked wily waitress
And I gave her all my trust
She took the loot, gave me the boot
Now she's rich and I'm flat bust

Yeah, love lies bleeding
That was the limit (love lies bleeding) because
She was a rebel without a cause (love, love)
She was a girl who needed applause (love, love)
Love in the future, love in the past (bleeding) hey
Love in the future, love in the past
Love lies bleeding in our path (love, love)

Love lies bleeding
Love lies bleeding
I want you to burn
Burn
Burn

I dreamed this world was quite alright (love lies bleeding)
And everyone meant well (love lies bleeding)
When I awoke to my surprise (love lies bleeding)
I found myself in hell (love lies bleeding)

Love lies bleeding
Love lies bleeding
Love lies bleeding
Love lies bleeding
Love lies bleeding
Love lies bleeding
Love lies bleeding
Love lies bleeding
Love lies bleeding
