You shot me down
You set me up woman then you shot me down
All you did was say "see you around"
You must have known, you must have seen it in my eyes
You must have known, I loved you woman, but now you're gone
I'm a summer, ruined by rain
I'm a pilot, shot down in flames
I'm a sailor, sunk without trace
The last time I saw your face
Why, for heavens sake woman won't you tell me why
Have you ever seen a grown man cry
I'm off my head, I'm going crazy thinking about this things you said
Could be with you but now instead
I'm a summer, ruined by rain
I'm a pilot, shot down in flames
I'm a sailor, sunk without trace
The last time I saw your face
I'm a summer, ruined by rain
I'm a pilot, shot down in flames
I'm a sailor, sunk without trace
The last time I saw your face
