Victim of Love's Crime

Victim Of Love I don't want to fight Nothings left that's now worth fighting for Bitterness and spite Are too much hurt for me to endure All that's left is pain Heartache's burning me up from inside I got it wrong again Some how the love we both shared has died I'm just a victim of love's crime Love will destroy me every time I've never really understood How to hold on when things are good Love just destroys me every time For I'm the victim of love's crime Now I'm on my own With just mem'ries and regrets to warm me Experience has shown I need to face up to reality Things went wrong so fast Turned my world upside down yet again Nothing ever lasts My whole life's just a circle of pain I'm just a victim of love's crime Love will destroy me every time I've never really understood How to hold on when things are good Love just destroys me every time For I'm the victim of love's crime Hold tight to your dreams Keep them growing safe inside of you Even though it seems It's all over, it's just starting anew Pages of your life Are waiting for your words to fill them Turn them with new eyes Fill them full with happiness again I'm just a victim of love's crime Love will destroy me every time I've never really understood How to hold on when things are good Love just destroys me every time For I'm the victim of love's crime Jane Shields (C)
