Lyrics

Shot In The Dark

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I had a vision for the life that was ahead of me

I had a reason, had a right and had a destiny

I thought I knew where I was headed

I would never look back

I had it all and then I went and let it slip away

I'm working over time, I'm gonna make it anyway.

Sometimes you win, Sometimes you lose

Sometimes you never get her back

Oh you know but...

I'm rising up slowly, we're getting higher

I've been living with a hole in my heart

Weighing down on me, but I'm a fighter

And I know I still got a shot in the dark

Baby, we still got a shot in the dark

Sometimes in life you meet the people that you think you trust.

Wake up one day you find that everything had turned to dust.

I always knew that you'd be waiting for me when I got back.

Waiting when...

I came rising up slowly and getting higher.

I've been living with a hole in my heart

Weighing down on me, but I'm a fighter

And I know I still got a shot in the dark

Baby, we still got a shot in the dark

I'm gonna find a way

I'm gonna find a way out

I'm gonna find a way

I got a vision for the life that's right in front of me

I've got a right, I got a reason, got a destiny

I know exactly where I'm headed

And I'm never looking back

Well nothing's holding me back

Well nothing's holding me back...

...from rising up slowly and getting higher.

I've been living with a hole in my heart

Weighing down on me, man, but I'm a fighter

And I know I still got a shot in the dark

Rising up slowly I'm getting higher.

I've been living with a hole in my heart

Weighing down on me, baby I'm a fighter

And I know I still got a shot in the dark

Baby, we still got a shot in the dark

And I know I still got a shot.
