Lyrics
[Verse 1]
If I were to say to you, "Can you keep a secret?"
Would you know just what to do, or where to keep it?
Then I say, "I love you, foul the situation"
Hey, girl, I thought we were the right combination
[PreChorus]
Who broke my heart? You did, you did
Bow to the target, blame Cupid, Cupid
You think you're smart, stupid, stupid
[Chorus]
Shoot that poison arrow to my heart
Shoot that poison arrow
Shoot that poison arrow to my heart
Shoot that poison arrow
[Verse 2]
No rhythm in cymbals, no tempo in drums
Love on arrival, she comes when she comes
Right on the target but wide of the mark
What I thought was fire was only the spark
[Verse 3]
The sweetest melody is an unheard refrain
So lower your sights
Yeah, but raise your aim, raise your aim
[PreChorus]
Who broke my heart? You did, you did
Bow to the target, blame Cupid, Cupid
You think you're smart, stupid, stupid
[Chorus]
Shoot that poison arrow to my heart
Shoot that poison arrow
Shoot that poison arrow to my heart
Shoot that poison arrow
[Bridge]
I thought you loved me, but it seems you don't care
I care enough to know I can never love you
[PreChorus]
Who broke my heart? You did, you did
Bow to the target, blame Cupid
You think you're smart, (That's stupid)
Right from the start when you knew we would part
[Chorus]
Shoot that poison arrow to my heart
Shoot that poison arrow
Shoot that poison arrow to my heart, heart, heart
Shoot that poison arrow
[Outro]
Ha, ha, ha, ha
Shoot that poison arrow
Shoot that poison arrow
