John McVie - Shot Down By Love lyrics

G. Sutton/S. Brown

Time after time my friends warned me

to stay away

But it's easier said than done

I try and I try

But I'm drawn like a moth to a flame, baby

The closer and closer you come

Once I could fly just like a bird so free

When only the sky was blue

But now I'm shackled to your memory

And I'm blue as the sky over you

I watch the night come down on lonely street

Look at all the people...just like me

Chorus:

Shot down by love

Kisses like bullets in a gun

Betrayed by desire

Ready, aim, fire

Shot down by love

Night after night

I keep having the same old dream

And it's driving me out of my head

I see you and you're kissing me...

But I awake in an empty bed

One more night comes down on lonely street

And I'm still running from your memory

Repeat chorus

I never thought we'd lose it all

You break on top and it's a long, long way to fall

Would you like to...

Do you like to see me crawl?

Repeat chorus
