Love Struck Me Down (Live) - Louis Barabbas/The Bedlam Six
Lyrics by：Louis Barabbas
Composed by：Louis Barabbas
Love struck me down way too young
Wish I'd known now what I know
Love struck me down
The silver lining only served to conceal the cloud
Lay in wait pretending
To be some kind of happy ending
Love struck me down
It hollowed me out and wore me like a crown
Love
Love struck me down
It got me bewitched
Word's going round that I'm cupid's new b***h
Love struck me down
It saddled me up and rode me around
I looked to the sky and saw cupid fly by
With a bow in his hands and a glint in his eye
Tattoos on his shoulders where there should have been wings
He was clinking a chain made of old wedding rings
And towering above on a dark cloud stood love
Cramming her claws into a pair of black gloves
She told me politely
I think you'll grow to like me
Down came aphrodite and said you can't fight me
Love
Love struck me down way too young
Pinned me to the ground and ripped out my tongue
Love struck me down
And fed me in chunks to her slavering hounds
Once you've seen what I've got to show
Beneath my halo
You'll never ever want to go
And nobody need know
If another tempts you away
I'll make them pay
So stay with me
Love speaks a tongue that none can translate
It stands at our rudder with no other shipmates
I'm sure that my mother told me I should just wait
But I took love's bait
Now it's too late
I've got to get out of here
I've got to get out of here
Now I get get it get it get it up
I get get it get it get it up
I get get it get it get it up
I get get it get it get it up
