Prefab Sprout

The Gunman

I know that on some narrow street

Our paths will cross, our eyes will meet

And love will leave me at his feet

I'm waiting for the gunman

When I enter a room

I will only sit facing the door

It's love I'm looking for

As I search every face

I start wondering

Is this the place?

For love is a gunman, and no mercy has he

He'll hunt you down until the day

Death sets you free

Love is a gunman, and he's coming to town

You'll meet his gaze, both barrels blaze

Staring you down

Love is a gunman, and no mercy has he

This time his sights, are fixed on me

You can run, you can hide

You can even saddle up and ride

But love won't be denied

You can wear a disguise

But he isn't fooled by alibis

For love is a gunman, and no mercy has he

He'll hunt you down until the day

Death sets you free

Love is a gunman, and he's coming to town

You'll meet his gaze, both barrels blaze

Staring you down

Love is a gunman, and no mercy has he

This time his sights, are fixed on me

Love is a gunman, and no mercy has he

This time his sights, are fixed on me
