She came in lookin' good and lookin' around
She's checkin' out every man in the room right now
Don't go tellin' her about right or wrong she's been alone way too long
Oh the heart is a lonely hunter with only one desire
To find some lastin' comfort in the arms of a lover's fire
Driven by a desperate hunger to the dark of the neon light
Oh the heart is a lonely hunter when there's no sign of love in sight
[ guitar ]
She hears him say hey can I buy you a drink
And sees the pale white circle where he wears his ring
She knows he's dealin' her a dangerous hand the consequences of a one night stand
But the heart is a lonely hunter
From somewhere deep inside she tells him no before she starts to cry she turns to go
Oh the heart is a lonely hunter
Oh the heart is a lonely hunter when there's no sign of love in sight
