John Hiatt The Love That Harms song lyrics

Shes seen the whites of crazy eyes

Been in the camps of foreign spies

Taken lovers by surprise

The captives smile

But all the while she is wearing a disguise

Better men have been betrayed

Better men have been afraid

Shes the best trick in the trade

Just another kiss

On a long hit list and shes got you made

I'd hoped I wouldnt haven't to tell you

But now it begins

The fool has rushed in

Into the waiting arms

Of the love that harms

I never knew such a hurting thing

Until she wore my wedding ring

And all the pain her love can bring

Well, I'm telling you

So you wont go through what I'm still remembering

But I can see that its just too late

The next in line is gonna have to wait

Thought we all meet the same fate

In a tomb thats sealed

With a kiss of steal from a blinding date

Ready or not she got you willing

Now it begins

The fool has rushed in

Into the waiting arms of the love that harms.
