Lonely Hunter - Willy DeVille

Down the back streets of desire

Left on lonesome street

Where there’s smoke there is fire

Lost love and hungry eyes roam free, roam free.

On the boulevard of broken dreams

All through the long cold night

There’s empty chances and longing glances

Dead romances are locked out, cold outside.

They say the heart is a lonely hunter

A lonely hunter in the dark

Hear them drums beat loud as thunder

It’s a lonely hunter and a lonely hunted heart.

In a dark room there’s tragic magic

There’s a heart that’s torn apart

All those spells that no one catches

It’s a lonely, lonely hunted heart.

They say the heart is a lonely hunter

A lonely hunter in the dark

Hear them drums beat loud as thunder

It’s a lonely hunter and a lonely hunted heart

It’s just a lonely hunted heart, yeah-hey.

It’s a lonely hunter and a lonely hunted heart

Lonely hunted heart, hey-hey.

Lonely, lonely hunted heart, yeah

It’s just a lonely hunted heart, yeah

A lonely hunted heart …
