Lyrics The Magic Numbers

The Magic Numbers

Shot In The Dark

Tell me who'd you gonna run to now

What if this is it 'til we turn around

There's a ladder to the stars just up ahead

Don't you wanna take my hand, take my heart instead

Crying I just wanna feel alive

Help me reach the heavens from this hell inside

Do you wrestle with the cross that you bear

No Jesus around your neck gonna save you here

Well, I suppose that I'm just a shot in the dark

Have you ever wondered why you miss 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 this heavy heart

Seems you've tattooed every tear that's down your face

Have you had it up to here, you just can't wait

Now baby I don't know why I feel so reckless

Show me what you're hiding from

Am I man enough to walk away from this

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 miss the mark

You say love it never dies, it just falls apart

And I suppose, in time, the shadows that burning up the demons in your soul

'Cause you seem ready to the fear of letting go

You knew it was hard right from the start

Tell me who'd you gonna run to now, who'd you gonna run to now

Well I suppose that life's just a shot in the dark

From the moment we arrive we 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 must drown all the 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… just a shot in the dark

Well I… just a shot in the dark

Just a shot in the dark
