The Beast Of Love

Steve Vai

I'll hold you so tightly

That you'll never suspect

That I may not always care

'Cause I live to deceive womans

Who are so lonely



I'm the Beast of Love

And you just got in my way.



At the end of this night

You'll not care to admit

That the time has come

To call it a day

Women won't believe my kisses

Are just like Satan's lies



I'm the Beast of Love

And your love is old and grey



Left by the lions

Torn by the hounds

Picked by the vultures

Scattered on the ground

You wouldn't have fallen

But your eyes were above

The belly of the Beast of Love



We walked the sands at sunset

Oh, what a dickens of a time we had

A time to laugh, a time to talk

We had so much fun

For a moment I nearly forgot

That I'm the Beast of Love

And you are my helpless prey



Left by the lions

Torn by the hounds

Picked by the vultures

Scattered on the ground

You wouldn't have fallen

But your eyes were above



The belly of the Beast of Love

The belly of the Beast of Love
