Lyrics Shot In The Dark - The Magic Numbers

Shot In The Dark

Tell me who’d she gonna run to know
What if this is it, do we turn around?
There’s a ladder to the stars, just step ahead
Don’t you wanna take my hand?
Take my heart instead
Crying out, I just wanna feel alive
Help me reach the heavens from this hell inside
'Cause you wrestle with the cross, let you in
No Jesus around your neck, no Savior here
Well, I suppose that I’m just A SHOT IN THE DARK
Have you ever wondered why we missed the mark?
You say love, it never dies, IT JUST FALLS APART
And how do you love me when you fall apart?
Go and start a revolution with these heavy hearts
Seem to have too many tears on your face
I had it up to here, you just couldn’t wait
Lately I don’t know why I feel so helpless
Show what you really are
Remind me here to walk away from you
I keep searching for some truth, but it don’t exist
Well, I suppose that I’m just A SHOT IN THE DARK
Have you ever wondered why we missed the mark?
You say love, it never dies, IT JUST FALLS APART
And I suppose, in time, the shadows that burn
All the demons in your soul
'Cause you seem ready to the fear of letting go
You in the dark, right from the start
Tell me who’d she gonna run to now
Who’d she gonna run to now?
Well, I suppose that life’s just A SHOT IN THE DARK
From the moment we arrive we’re just playing a part
And that longing never dies, it’s there from the start
You don’t know the reason why but IT TEARS YOU APART
If loving is denied, it will shatter your heart
If loving is denied, it will shatter your heart
Every piece that you can find, it still comes apart
Well, I suppose that I was traveling with demons
That were running through your soul
But you lived quiet, you’ll never let me go
Are you still trying?
I will never let you go
Well, I’m just A SHOT IN THE DARK
I’M JUST A SHOT IN THE DARK
JUST A SHOT IN THE DARK
