Victim of Love

Bryan Adams · Hits On Fire [1988]

Livin' on your own can be a lonely game

A face in the crowd - no one nows your name

It's a table for one and a broken heart to go



She's the kind of lover that you always dreamed

would come to stay and never leave

But that's all changed - She's dealt the final blow



Heaven knows what you where thinking of

Don't blame yourself you're just a victim of love



It doesn't matter who was right or wrong

When the fire is over - when the magic's gone

you pick up the pieces and do the best you can



It knocks you down but you try again

you get a little older it's a crying shame

sometimes things don't work out like you plan



Who's gonna help you when you've had enough

Ain't no secret you're a victim of love



Heaven knows what you where thinking of

Don't blame yourself you're just a victim of love



One goodbye was really all it took

now you thumb through the pages of your little black book

But somehow all the numbers look the same



You've been thinkin' how to get around it

But there ain't nothing you can do about it

Nothing ventured - nothing gained



Ain't nothing you can't rise above

call it what you want but you're a victim of love



Who's gonna help you when you've had enough

Ain't no secret you're a victim of love



I don't wanna lose your love...
