[Verse 1]
The world is full of people who can dance
Around your plans
I heard its called love
She's waiting with an outstretched hand
And time can tell the people you love
Which side you sell
Maybe it's late
I'd really like to know your name
[Chorus]
But I was born in the firing line
They told me to shoot first then cover my eyes
And what about love?
It's a different kind of terrified delight
But I can't tear your hand from your face
Your pretty little face, my dear
[Verse 2]
And anyone's a liar when can take the time
To terrify the driver
I wanna get laid
I'm worried you'll forget my face
[Chorus]
But I was born in the firing line
They told me to shoot first then cover my eyes
And what about love? (what about love?)
It's a different kind of terrified delight
But I can't tear your hand from your face
Your silly little face, my dear
[Bridge]
I'm moving kinda slow for a get away (get away)
But it all seems to brighten my day
I wonder what it feels a world away
[Chorus]
But I was born in the firing line (I was born)
They told me to shoot first then cover my eyes (Cover my eyes)
And what about love? (what about love?)
It's a different kind but you can't seem to have
