A shot in the dark Lyrics by Isabel Wood

2025

[Chorus]
\nIt was a shot in the dark down a dead-end street
\nWhen it got too real, you got to leave
\n
\n[Verse 1]
\nI fell fast, then hit hard
\nI still hear your voice when I play my guitar
\nYou look well, how nice
\nHeard you moved along, what a lovely surprise
\n
\n[Pre-Chorus]
\nI know I gotta walk away from this
\n'Cause you make things worse
\nI don't do it on purpose
\nJust another way to play a game of chance
\nBut I knew from the moment we met
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nIt was a shot in the dark down a dead-end street
\nWhen it got too real, you got to leave
\nBut I couldn't get up from our bed we'd made
\nI don't mind though, I'm still dancing with your shadow
\n
\n[Verse 2]
\nFourth year, fresh tears
\nRolled down my cheeks so casually
\nThe bad jokes and crushed hopes
\n[? 1:12] and a comedy show
\n
\n[Pre-Chorus]
\nI know I gotta walk away from this
\n'Cause you make things worse
\nI don't do it on purpose
\nJust another way to play a game of chance
\nBut I knew from the moment we met
\n
\n[Chorus]
\nIt was a shot in the dark down a dead-end street
\nWhen it got too real, you got to leave
\nBut I couldn't get up from our bed we'd made
\nI don't mind though, I'm still dancing with your shadow
\nOh, oh
\nI'm dancing with your shadow
\nOh, oh
\nI'm dancing with your shadow
\n
\n[Outro]
\nTime flew by in the blink of an eye
\nIf I could let go, don't you think I would try?
\nI'm stuck here in the mess we made
\nI don't mind though, I'm still dancing with your shadow\n\n
