Shotgun

Glen Clark

I'm hiding up the stairs
And I'm under the bed
And I pray to my lucky stars
Cos If I'm found out I am dead

I'm holding my breath
And I'm covered in sweat
And a slice of light is burning
Both my retinas to death

Is that a shotgun in his hand?
He's been trying to keep us apart
He's got a shotgun in his hand
Because I've stolen the beat of her heart

And she's lying in her bed
She's pretending to sleep
And the shadow blocks the light
As I'm playing hide and seek

Should I jump from the window?
Or run through the door?
If I don't make a break
I hate to think what lies in store

Is that a shotgun in his hand?
He's been trying to keep us apart
He's got a shotgun in his hand
Because I've stolen the beat of her heart

As I run though the night
From the pan to the fire
You can lay down your law
But you can't smother our desire

And I'll be back again
I will save you my love
I won't break my promise to you
That we made on stars above

Is that a shotgun in his hand?
He's been trying to keep us apart
He's got a shotgun in his hand
Because I've stolen the beat of her heart

Let her go, Let her go, Let her go, Let her go, Let her go
