Lyrics
Gun Shy
(c) Colleen Laylon Frost, BMI Gina Paoini, ASCAP, 2010
V1
I saw those three little words starin' back at me
your eyes told on your heart, but I pretended not to see
then I leaned in for a kiss, before those words could leave your lips
and I knew what you were thinking', "why is she avoiding this........?"
Hey...
Chorus
I'm a little bit Gun Shy, still licking my wounds from the last time
hearts been shot up like Old Glory, and it's.... ashamed to fly
Oh Yeah...., I'm a little bit Gun Shy, L word sounds like a battle cry
I'm not quite ready for suicide
Yeah...., I'm a little bit Gun Shy
V2
You tell me that you're different you shoot straight from the heart
but fairy tales seem more like, a crap shot in the dark
I could let you have your way, pull back the hammer and take aim
before you pull that trigger, still got one thing left to say.........
Hey...
Repeat Chorus
(Instrumental Bridge)
(Bridge)
No, I don't wanna hide and I don't want you to run
but I damn sure ain't ready to face that gun...
Hell....
Repeat Chorus
TAG
Oh Yeah, I'm a little bit, just a little bit, Gun Shy....
