Love is a Grift by Victoria Squid

The theme song for Graham Wynd‘s new noir LOVE IS A GRIFT available from from FoxSpirit.co.uk. ‘Four cities, one woman… and a trail of bodies.‘ This song is what brought her to that point. See GrahamWynd.com for more.

Lyrics

Love is a Grift
©2019 K. A. Laity

Love is a grift, love is a con;
The only sure thing is he’s putting you on.
He’s a schemer, a thief and a dreamer.

Love is a grift, love is a con;
The only sure thing is he’s putting you on.
He’s a loser, a cad and a boozer.

Love of a stranger
Can lead you into danger,
And trusting in the one you know
Can take you places you shouldn’t go.

BRIDGE

Champagne and whisky
Then play time gets risky.
The night runs hot, you get a lift.
Love is a scam but it’s also a gift.

Love is a grift, love is a con;
The only sure thing is he’s putting you on.
He’s a chiseler, your heart is a prisoner.

Love is a grift, love is a con;
The only sure thing is he’s putting you on.
He’s a cheater, stealing is sweeter.

It’s a gift, it’s a grift, it’s a con…
Lead me on.
