Ryan Fox - When You Want Love Lyrics

I used to be the evening owl
"Hawk of the town" they'd say
Easy prey devoured
Made me coo for only a day

But when you want love
That's not sufficient
When you want love
It's completely different

When you're longing for something so distant
Like a beggar in need of a friend
But if the train doesn't stop at your station
You'll have to stay on 'til the end
When you want love
It may not want you
So when you want love
You'd better be true
When you want love

I took a job in London
Met a girl with taste and style
An orange tennis climber
She amused me for a while

But when you want love
It's not the same
When you want love
You leave the game

I tried all the ways and failed
And I thought my ship had sailed
But once you've thrown the final die
It's only then you'll realize
That all you've got to do
When you want love
Is be true
To you

So when you're longing for something so distant
Like a beggar in need of a friend
And if the train doesn't stop at your station
You'll have to stay on 'til the end
When you want love
It might not want you
So when you want love
You'd better be true
When you want love
