WANTED: Dead or Loved

I rode into this town with my heart wide open,
Dust on my soul and dreams still unspoken.
Your eyes lit the night like a neon confession,
Now I’m chasing your love like my last obsession.

I tried to play cool, but the fire keeps burning,
Each glance you throw sets my fate turning.
Bounty on my pride, it’s a wild man’s wager,
I’m a fool for your kiss, caught in danger.

(Chorus)
I’m wanted — dead or loved, can’t you see?
Caught in the crossfire of what could be.
If your heart won’t take me, I’ll fade away,
Wanted — dead or loved, till my dying day.
I’m wanted — dead or loved by you.

Wanted posters hang in the back of my mind,
Your name written there, cruel and kind.
If love’s the crime, then I’ll take the blame,
Lock me up tight in the heat of your flame.

Every night’s a trial under moonlight’s gun,
Heart against hope till the verdict’s done.
If mercy is yours, then truth’s gonna show,
Either love me now or let me go slow.

Still I stand, half-alive in your shadow’s light,
Chained by your memory through the long fight.
Wanted—dead or loved—is the mark I wear,
Either break my heart or say you care.

(Bridge)
I’ve been running from my heart too long,
Every step I take proves I was wrong.
Now the truth’s a pistol aimed at me,
Your love’s the bullet that sets me free.

(Chorus)
I’m wanted — dead or loved, can’t you see?
Caught in the crossfire of what could be.
If your heart won’t take me, I’ll fade away,
Wanted — dead or loved, till my dying day.
I’m wanted — dead or loved by you.
I’m wanted — dead or loved, can’t you see?
Caught in the crossfire of what could be.
If your heart won’t take me, I’ll fade away,
Wanted — dead or loved, till my dying day.
I’m wanted — dead or loved by you.
I’m wanted — dead or loved by you.
