When Love Attacks Lyrics - Bonnie Tyler

(rick derringer/ larry sloman) 

Producer for bonnie: rick derringer 

Recorded in 1983 for rick derringer's 'good dirty fun' album. he had previously been working with bonnie on 'faster than the speed of night' and later asked her to duet. lyrics taken from careful listening. 

He's bitter, so blue 

Cold armour, see through 

Heavy heart, heavy head 

Walking tall, walking dead 

Then love attacks 

And you can try to hide 

But in the end there's nowhere 

It can get inside 

A triple-locked apartment 

A secret compartment 

Can't conceal the treasure 

When love comes to take your heart away

She's fragile, so torn 

Spanish lace, so shop-worn 

There's a rainbow 

And there's a stream 

A total eclipse 

Of a dream 

Then love attacks 

And you can try to hide 

But in the end there's nowhere 

It can get inside 

A triple-locked apartment 

A secret compartment 

Can't conceal the treasure 

When love comes to take your heart away 

Now he can seem tough 

You think he must be scarred 

But if you scratch below the surface you'll find 

That he's just love-starved 

Photos 

She's so hungry 

For something new 

Or something borrowed 

Out of the blue 

Then love attacks 

And you can try to hide 

But in the end there's nowhere 

It can get inside 

A triple-locked apartment 

A secret compartment 

Can't conceal the treasure 

When love comes to take your heart away
