You only hit me with your best shots
One thing I can always say
I woke up and you were gone
There was a time that was okay
You ooo ooo and your hit and run heart
Letting me in but only in part
Me eee eee and my break away love
Always letting go before push came to shove
I don’t know if it’s time
or if my heart has grown
I can tell it is time
I had a love of my own
You ooo ooo and your hit and run heart
Letting me in but only in part
Me eee eee and my break away love
Always letting go before push came to shove
Is it your love?
Boy is it you?
I know you can hit it?
Tell me, what else can you do.
You ooo ooo and your run away heart
Letting me in but only in part
Me eee eee and my break away love
Always letting go before push came to shove
You ooo ooo and your hit and run heart
You, sweet lover, and your hit and run heart
Stay. Put away your hit and run heart
Author notes
Lyric Prompt No.5 is:
“Pictures in a box at home
yellowing and green with mold,
so I can barely see your face,
wonder how that color taste”
from 'Brother' by Alice In Chains
I am not familiar with Alice in Chains so I listened to the song. Hit and Run Heart is what I got from it. Hope these lyrics work for you.
