Bon Jovi - Love Lies Lyrics
I was lost, then I found you
Never thought it would be this way
I showed you my heart, left it unguarded
Like a thief in the night you stole it away
I still hear you whispering to me through the shadows of the night
[Chorus:]
Love lies, you're just a victim of the headlines
You're running on into a cold night
You're just a number of the love lies
All alone you call it survival
He lost at love to a stranger's lines
Walking the streets, searching with vengeance
Time goes on, all signs of life stolen, simple dreams were all broken
Best of times become desperation but how many tears must you cry to survive
[Chorus]
They met late one night in the city
Both men knew only one would stay
Scratched a picture of a heart on a bullet
And took his life away
[Chorus]

Bon Jovi Love Lies Comments
Had this on cassette in 1985. Wore it out lol
I can't believe this song didn't blow up. great tune! I grew up with these guys and inspired by samboras guitar playing. and his wayling vocals at the end is awesome!!
High school days, staring at the most beautiful girl there, hoping ❤️
Bon Jovi'S BEST ALBUM BY FAR
Yeah, It's true!
In these time Bon Jovi was a great and epic band

One of his best
Ты ,мудак !!!!
El teclado es insuperable
Love this album and this song is truthfully perfect
First two albums are Raw and awesome 😈
better than the other recent love lies, I think
The melody of the line "you're just a victim of the headlines" is amazing and I love it so much.
Desde que escuche por primera vez a Bon jovi me enamore completamente y sigo todos sus discos
2:30 ..."and then ig one night in the city,old men new ol the what ya say,they stares a picture of a heart on the voovid and took his love OohaaaAAAAAAAaaaAAAAYYYEEEE"
Love bon jovi. This is a great bon jovi album n others as well. Love Richie n Jon n the others as well.
Genial y maravillosa canción !!
I think people tend to forger how important David Bryan is... plays beautifully
love lies
you're just a victim of the head lice...
So I have this album with a manufacturing mistake. Side 2 has is not Bon Jovi, it's a Cameo funk band side two with songs from an album the same year, 1984. I wonder if it's worth anything?
Genial, INOLVIDABLE :) Bon Jo..
i love to listen to all song .so i need a female friend to listen to all ur song
best album they ever did, every song fantastic, very underated.
if only his music was the same grew up loving his music
Very underrated song and album. I love the first two albums.
@Alan J Bennett Keep the Faith and These days were great too
@Bluesman 78 for me keep the faith,only had a few good songs,but these days is a fine album,I've been re listening to it lately good album probably my 4th favourite actually.
Marcelo de Andrade i totally agree..i love this album.still listening in 2019..shes a lil runaway 🥁🎸🎶🎵🎵
My favourite too raw and awesome!!!
Marcelo de Andrade indeed!
I was lost, then i found you
i never thought it would be this way
showed you my heart left it unguarded
like a thief in the night
you stole it away
now you're gone the pain goes on and on
i still hear you whispering to me
through the shadows of the night
chorus: love lies
you're just a victim of the headlines
you're running on into a cold night
just a number to the love lines
all alone you call it survival
he lost at love to a stranger's lines
walking the streets searching with vengeance
for a face that he dreams of night after night
time goes on all signs of life stolen
simple dreams were all broken
best of time become desperation
but how many tears must you cry to survive
chorus: love lies
you're just a victim of the headlines
you're running on into a cold night
just a number to the love lines
they met late one night in the city
both men knew only one would stay
scratched a picture of a heart on a bullet
and took his life away
chorus: love lies
you're just a victim of the headlines
you're running on into a cold night
just a number to the love lines
Bellissima canzone.....
hoooo te baje la canzone
What a chord progression, heck who writes this stuff on their first album. I love them but I know this is Richie's songwriting genius shining through. I may do an open mic circuit of old, unknown, unappreciated, early Bon Jovi songs!! ;-)
FatalPies Jon & Richie were the ones who mostly wrote every song for every album they have made as far as i know.
Waxy Joëlle usually richie and Jon writes together , but this song was written by only Jon , you can listen it from John Bongiovi and the wild ones , jon's band before Bon Jovi
Hey guys&girls.lets not fuss over who wrote it..truth is its a brilliant song which is only 1 of a brilliant album 🤘😎
O yea & waxy.love the idea of you doing a gig..people gotta hear this 😎🤘
This was my first rock album as a kid. I was hooked then. Listening to this band through the years, this album is their best. They made many great albums. This song is one of their top 5 songs..Too bad it never got the play time it deserved. Richie had a great sound then, and the vocals were great..
I agree, that it's an amazing song....not sure about it being the best album, or great production but such genius songwriting :D
what are those shoes?
+darrel shimmer WHAT'RE THOSEEEE
darrel shimmer Jon had the first pair of Uggs 😬
Sooo....my boyfriend told me to listen to this...
+Senai Gnansounou good for you
+Senai Gnansounou well, i thought it was a good song! Hell, i know its a good song, but still, there is a different meaning for this song for each listener. I listened to this over the summer when i was depressed, and we both know why i was, and i sought comfort and a way to get over the depression and this song was it, of course, you helped waaaay more
Thanks ! Superba !
i'm a big bon jovi fan
eat more salads
Just listening on youtube to my favorite guy in rock. Love that I can find these songs that not many paid attention to.
So much better song than new ones. But 100k watch only. :/
This sounds like a typical AOR band from the early 80s. I guess they got really lucky later on.
I guess you're just a moron you don't just get " lucky " 30 years lucky at that typical dumb jovi hater
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh :) :) :)
@thenintendogamer
They also soundchecked Hardest Part is the Night but didn't make it through the setlists.
Bon jovi,.....one word. Brilliant.
And on the Circle tour they played several early songs like Get Ready, Only Lonely, Roulette etc. They always played Runaway though.
They did play it live, in '85. Theres a recording of it in Philadelphia I think here on YT
Their first album is their best by far!
Agreed. Remember when it came out and thought it was new Aldo Nova (who plays keyboards on it per credits) Saw them open for Judas Priest Screaming for Vengeance tour when this came out
Yes!!!!
They played Helsinki last year, Jon hurt his leg in the middle of the show. I saw them a few weeks after that, 2 front-row shows in Dublin where I got to meet Jon. I saw them 3 times in the USA before that. Best times of my life.
5 times!! 2 continents!! :D I´ve only seen them two times, back in, was it -88, The Jersey Syndicate-tour, in Helsinki, great show it was, and -95 inTurku, they were headlining Ruisrock-festival, after the These Days album was released... Since then haven´t had a chance, I live in northern Finland so not so often they come to my neighbourhood to play :D It´s nice to know there are still young people who listens to real music played by a real musicians:) Well, my kids are into rock also! :D
Yeah, we're a dying breed. I had just turned 14 when I put this video on YouTube. Too bad almost no one I know likes them... I've seen the band 5 times on 2 continents and I'm traveling to see a Richie Sambora solo show in a month.
Great to see that you go and search these older and not so much played songs! Keep on rockin` Patricia! :)
This is definitely my favourite Bon Jovi song.
@Valentina440 si mami, you´re right
the old times better than today´s for sure
one of my favorite bon jovi song... this just soo beautiful.. this, shot through the heart, roulette are just sooooo beautiful they are way too underrated .
I listened some live version of this song many years ago but not cool as this one
eu amo essa musica =(
God i love this song.
@germansillies Yes it is isnt it? the first 2 LP's were far superior to anything else the lads did since then...
@MARIOFREAK821
unfortunately they almost never play those songs.... it was a big surprise to me that they played only lonely in 2010, another favourite of mine...! :))) great song anyway, if they play it or not! ;)
@ntinaferstavriston If it counts, they just played Get Ready for the last show of the tour in Lisbon, Portugal. Other than that, nothing since mid-2010.
that' one of the greatest bon jovi songs!!! so sad they never play it live, like all their songs from their first two albums.....
bon jovi's old stuff is great !
best version of this song...thanks for uploading.
what a voice! and a great solo...!
@MAGNUM2E yeah me too :)
AWESOME
@AccountUntitled You're very welcome. I'd upload more videos but now, any video I upload with Bon Jovi songs are instantly blocked, by YouTube. Most of what I already have uploaded is blocked too. It's a shame really :(
All Bon Jovi does is great music... LOVE this band ^_^
Boy this takes me back to the days when I had my Camaro........Good times!!!
Mega Clássico master blaster
@entersandman2909 true and bon jovi are just an underrated band (MY FAVOURITE)
and took
his life
awaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyy!!!
@lionesss666 Yup, although they've kinda been slacking on it. Come to think of it, they haven't done anything from the first 2 since they did Only Lonely in Holland about 2 months ago...
@MAGNUM2E apparently they were/are playing more songs from their first 2 albums in the circle tour.
@dizetti cause it's all bon jovi raw if u lkow what i mean?!?
bon jovi is awesome
Best Bon Jovi album
best song they wrote ,for sure!!!
agree, this and 7800 fahrenheit are such underrated albums
Every time I hear it I wanna cry!
just so sweet memories with this album in my childhood in my older brother car, they're the best & they'll stay the best forever!!
Bon Jovi forever!!
Bon Jovi....lo mejor hp!!!!!!!!!!
