I was a sailor I was lost in sea
I was under the waves before love rescued me
I was a fighter I could turn on a threat
Now I stand accused of the things I've said
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
Used to make love under a red sunset
Making promises I was soon to forget
She was pale as the lace of her wedding gown
Left her standing before love came to town
Ran into a juke joint when I heard a guitar scream
Notes were turning blue
As days as a little dream
As the music played I saw my life turn around
That was the day before love came to town
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
Yes it is
I was there when they crucified my Lord
I held the scabbard
When the soldier drew his sword
I threw the dice as they pierced his side
But I've seen love conquer the great divide
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
