A Shot

And so I turn the pages over

I'm one year older and wiser

But desperate to believe

You meant no wrong when you walked out of here

But you stole my memories from my family

It knocked me off my feet

I took a shot right

I took a shot right to the heart

Your lack of sympathy

It got the best of me

And no one could relieve it

One day you turned and betrayed my confidence

Oh there is no evidence

Of the nights we spent talking 'til all hours

I was naive to put all my trust in you

When I guess I always knew from what I'd observed

You'd one day cut me loose

I took a shot right

I took a shot right to the heart

Your lack of sympathy

It got a hold of me

And no one could relieve it

But there goes my baby

He grew so healthy and so happy

You once held him close to you

But then you took us for granted

And you left us standing there without a care

And you expect me to believe

You only wanted what was best for me

I took a shot right

I took a shot right to the heart

Your lack of sympathy

It got the best of me

And no one could relieve it

I took a shot right

I took a shot right to the heart

Your lack of sympathy

It got a hold of me

And no one could relieve it

There was no one to relieve

No one to relieve

No one to relieve

No one to relieve it
