Bruce Springsteen - Point Blank

Do you still say your prayers little darlin'
do you go to bed at night
Prayin' that tomorrow,
everything will be alright
But tomorrow's fall in number
in number one by one
You wake up and you're dying
you don't even know what from

Well they shot you point blank
you been shot in the back
Baby point blank you been
fooled this time little girl that's a fact
Right between the eyes baby,
point blank right between the pretty lies
that they tell
Little girl you fell

You grew up where young girls they grow up fast
You took what you were handed
and left behind what was asked
but what they asked baby wasn't right
you didn't have to live that life,
I was gonna be your Romeo
you were gonna be my Juliet
These days you don't wait
on Romeo's you wait on that welfare check
and on all the pretty things that
you can't ever have and on all the promises

That always end up point blank,
shot between the eyes
Point blank like little white lies
you tell to ease the pain
You're walkin' in the sights,
girl of point blank
and it's one false move
and baby the lights go out

Once I dreamed we were together again
baby you and me
Back home in those old clubs
the way we used to be
We were standin' at the bar it was hard to hear
The band was playin' loud
and you were shoutin' somethin' in my ear
You pulled my jacket off
and as the drummer counted four
You grabbed my hand
and pulled me out on the floor
You just stood there and held me,
then you started dancin' slow
And as I pulled you tighter
I swore I'd never let you go

Well I saw you
last night down on the avenue
Your face was
in the shadows but I knew that it was you
You were standin'
in the doorway out of the rain
You didn't answer when
I called out your name
You just turned,
and then you looked away like just another
stranger waitin' to get blown away

Point blank, right between the eyes
Point blank, right between the pretty lies you fell
Point blank, shot straight through the heart,
Yea point blank, you've been twisted up
till you've become just another part of it
Point blank, you're walkin' in the sights,
Point blank, livin' one false move
just one false move away
Point blank, they caught you in their sights
Point blank, did you forget how to love, girl,
did you forget how to fight.
Point blank they must have shot you in the head
Cause point blank, bang bang baby you're dead.
