casualty of love

Lyrics

mama used to tell me tales bout a part of town, where people cry the blues most everyday, she said don't go down there boy you know love'll cut you down, and you ain't yet a man hear what i say, she said listen to me son it's so, let me tell you i been down there and i know, that on love street they've got signs that say watch for falling victims, dreams get run down in the night lord and yours might be the next one, down where lies'll cut you deep and goodbyes are loaded guns, you can take one through the heart another casualty of love, but still i had to find out just how a love would feel, i got tangled in the arms of one gone bad, now i sit and wait and wonder as i cry myself to sleep, why i couldn't heed what my mama said, now here every word rings clear and true, now i come to realize what love can do, that on love street they've got signs. that on love street they've got signs.
