We’ve been here before
We tried to forget the way that we got home
You were so sure that i was letting you down my boy
But when i find you i’ll sit and remind you
I can taste my own medicine now
The red lights wont slow me down
You know they never did.
Oh we’ve been down here before
Just to try and forget the day that i met you
You were so pure
But i was letting you down down down
So when i find you i’ll sit and remind you
I can taste my own medicine now
The red lights wont slow me down
They all mean nothing now
But you always said
You’ll never get far never get far
You’ll never get far
Just like the ones before
Last night was the last time i wanted to see you
My shotgun valentine
That’s right but today you know i want you to stay
Last night was the last time that i wanted to be here my shotgun valentine
That’s right but today you know i want you to stay
Well now the city lies still
I had a sense of hope but it slipped through my fingers
You’re happy until you see me down here
But will you see that i’m in pieces
Will you see that i am lost
And well you know i tried to love you
But you wont know i dont know how to
Last night was the last time i wanted to see you
My shotgun valentine
That’s right but today you know i want you to stay
Last night was the last time that i wanted to be here my shotgun valentine
That’s right but today you know i want you to stay
