Victims of Desire

They found her body on a freight train
landed in Dallas another heatwave
Sheriff came down on the attention
a dirty trail of fatal attraction

She never had a chance with kiss and tell
Yeh hard times, hard crimes
Her dreams were lost inside the wishing well
love was denied

Victims
You are a victim of desire
Victims
she was a victim of desire

She found her lover in the back streets
his body bleeding she couldn't speak
Life ain't so easy for the victim
you die inside then you die young

Fights all night and now he's got no time
he sold his soul for fun
He wrote a book of lies he didn't have no light
he was caught up in a hit and run

He never had a home outside his cell
Crime pays all day
His dreams were lost inside a living hell
no other way

The monies on the table cause he's a gamblin' man
you pay what you owe and then you're square with the house

They never had a chance with kiss and tell
no time too late
Their dreams were lost inside the wishing well
always the same
