A Shot In The Dark Lyrics / Music Bruce Aitken c 1984-2006


Your love was like a shot in the dark
You aimed it at me just for a lark
You said you thought, it was all for the best
I wish now I?d scored me a bullet proof vest oh yeah

I walked away from this show down
At the best I was feeling rather low down
You?re oh so grown up, but you?re still at school
I got to be wary of the punches you pull oh yeah

When it suites you, you can be nice
When it doesn?t well I guess I pay the price
You say its truth, but that?s just a lie
You?re so spaced out on pills, but fake a natural high oh yeah

If I catch you, you check your glance
As if by accident, its just circumstance
Your tongue is so lethal, your comments so barbed
They cut through my feelings and leave me all scarred , oh yeah
