Love Bites by Def Leppard

Previous Song - Who's Crying Now by Journey

Next Song - What If I Sumble by DC Talk

A great song but not even the best on the album. This was a pretty awesome album back in the day.

If you've got love in your sights 

Watch out, love bites 

When you make love, do you look in the mirror? 

Who do you think of, does he look like me? 

Do you tell lies and say that it's forever? 

Do you think twice, or just touch 'n' see? 

Ooh babe ooh yeah 

When you're alone, do you let go? 

Are you wild 'n' willin' or is it just for show? 

Ooh c'mon 

I don't wanna touch you too much baby 

'Cos making love to you might drive me crazy 

I know you think that love is the way you make it 

So I don't wanna be there when you decide to break it 

No! 

Love bites, love bleeds 

It's bringin' me to my knees 

Love lives, love dies 

It's no surprise 

Love begs, love pleads 

It's what I need 

When I'm with you are you somewhere else? 

Am I gettin' thru or do you please yourself? 

When you wake up will you walk out? 

It can't be love if you throw it about 

Ooh babe 

I don't wanna touch you too much baby 

'Cos making love to you might drive me crazy 

[Repeat Chorus]

[guitar solo] 

Ooh yeah 

[Repeat Bridge]

Love bites, love bleeds 

It's bringin' me to my knees 

Love lives, love dies 

[Repeat Chorus]

If you've got love in your sights 

Watch out, love bites 

Yes it does 

It will be hell

• This is the first song on this blog by Def Leppard.
• This is the third song on this blog released in 1987.
• This is the fifth song on this blog listed as 80s genre and sixth song listed as Rock.
• I had no idea if I should list this song under Rock or 80s. I was leaning towards Rock because it doesn't necessarily sound 80s but my wife said she thinks of it more as 80s. After much debate, I said screw it, I'm listing it under both. I just don't want to end up with all these oddball genres because depending on what it is, it may have 3 or 4 genres posted.
