Longshot Lyrics by Vertigo

Let’s Get Dangerous

2013

Oh girl, you're coming on way too strong
Relax, and let me do my job
Whoa, this is so typical
For a girl to act innocent
I'm down, with all my money spent, oh yeah hands down
You're not the only girl to whom all my love went

I've been down for a long time running
And babe I can live without you shunning me

Was it something I said that made you forget
That I am a man, not just a kid?
And if I play my cards right, maybe just one night
You won't show me the door instead of your bed
And me, yeah I've been through a lot
You are, you are
Me, yeah I've been through a lot
You are a longshot

It's safe to say that she will rob you blind
Forget your feelings and catch a train with no goodbye
Well that's how she is designed
Glamour's not what I'm chasing
And I'm sorry girl, you just won't get it from me
I'm locked on to the lovely lethality

Is it safe?
Your decisions are so off base
This city's watered down
It's safe to say she's right, she's got me singing loud
So take a bow
You caught me by surprise
And fed me for a long time
That your love wasn't a crime
You said your love wasn't a crime

Was it something I said that made you forget
That I am a man, not just a kid?
And if I play my cards right maybe just one night
You won't show me the door
