Live 03 Jul 2009 version
Do you still say your prayers little darling, do you go to bed at night
Praying that tomorrow, everything will be alright
But tomorrow's fall in number, in number one by one
You wake up and you're dying, you don't even know what from
They shot you point blank
You been shot in the back, baby point blank
You been fooled this time, little girl that's a fact
Right between the eyes, baby, point blank
Here right between the pretty lies you fell
And listen
You grew up where young girls grow up fast
You took what you were handed and left behind what was asked
But what they asked baby wasn't right
You didn't have to live that life
I was gonna be your Romeo, you'd be my Juliet
These days you don't wait on Romeo's, you wait on that welfare check
And on all the pretty things that you can't ever have
And on all the promises that
Always end up point blank
Yeah, shot between the eyes, baby point blank
Like the little white lies you tell to ease the pain
You're walking in the sights, baby point blank
And it's one false move and baby the lights go out
And listen
Once I dreamed we were together again, baby you and me
We were back home in those old clubs the way we used to be
We were standing at the bar, it was hard to hear
The band was playing loud, you were shouting something in my ear
You pulled my jacket off and as the drummer counted four
You grabbed my hand and pulled me out on the floor
First we just stood there, then we started dancing slow
I pulled you tighter I swore I'd never let you go
Well I saw you last night down on the avenue
Your face was in the shadows but I knew that it was you
You were standing in the doorway out of the rain
You didn't answer when I called out your name
You just turned, and then you looked away
Like just another stranger
Waiting to get blown away, point blank
Right between the eyes, Baby point blank
Yeah, right between the pretty lies you fell, point blank
You've been shot straight through the heart, baby point blank
You've been twisted up till you've become just another part of it, point blank
Baby, point blank
Once I dreamed we were together again
Once I dreamed we were together again
Once I dreamed we were together again
The above lyrics are for the live 03 Jul 2009 performance of POINT BLANK at Commerzbank-Arena in Frankfurt, Germany, during the Working On A Dream Tour.
