Lyrics
[Intro]
Shot through the heart
It's all part of the game that we call love
[Verse 1]
Would you be content to see me crying?
After all those little games you put me through
After all I've done for you, you're lying
Wouldn't it be nice to tell the truth?
[PreChorus]
Didn't somebody somewhere say
You're gonna take a fall?
I gave you everything
Now here's the curtain call
[Chorus]
And I'm shot through the heart as I lay there alone
In the dark through the heart
It's all part of the game that we call love
[Verse 2]
Now you've come back here to say you're sorry, ha!
I just don't know who you're talking to
It could be the man I used to be, girl
I've grown up and now I'm over you
[PreChorus]
Standing there, just a live wire
With nowhere left to turn
You were gonna set the world on fire
But you'll never learn
[Chorus]
That you're shot through the heart as I lay there alone
In the dark through the heart
It's all part of the game that we call love
[Verse 3]
Standing there, just a live wire
With nowhere left to turn
You were gonna set the world on fire
But you'll never learn
Now you're shot
[Bridge]
Baby does what baby please
And baby must have what she sees
But not this time, the tables turned
And baby just got burned
[Chorus]
Shot through the heart as I lay there alone
In the dark through the heart
It's all part of the game that we call
Shot through the heart as I lay there alone
In the dark through the heart
It's all part of the game that we call
[Outro]
Shot through the heart as I lay there alone
In the dark through the heart
It's all part of the game
Shot, shot, shot, shot
Shot, shot, shot
