Sam Johnson Loveville
I know this town, I know this place
It left these scars upon my face
A town called love, a town called love
It took so long just to find it
Let me tell you why we abandoned
A town called love, a town called love
Like a skyscraper reaching high
My love for you would never die
These city walls, they seemed so strong,
But they were fractured all along
These streams of joy, these streams of grace
But now these streams run down my face
There was a time when all was brill
But now it's winter in Loveville
The lake is frozen over here
And our young hearts engulfed with fear
My hands were numb, my fingers blue
Heart turned to ice at the sight of you
The flowers of love which once did bloom
In perpetual winter now were doomed
Our fortress here now lies in ruins
Don't look back. No, I won't look back soon
The demolition had begun
We were such fools, we were so young
These twists and turns to left and right
We were knocked down with every fight
We prayed to God our wounds would heal
The holes left in our hearts would seal
That we'd be freed from Cupid's spell
And we would flee the gates of hell
Would we be answered? Time would tell
For now it's winter in Loveville
They say it comes from above
Descends from heaven like a dove
A town called love, a town called love
On eagle's wings it lifts you up
But drops you down when you break up
A town called love, a town called love
