I have learned the golden words, "you watch your step"
That life is made for fools and the devil takes the rest
I know my heart is like a fire, it burns alone
I come from somewhere else where, grapes of rock are grown
Call me a shot in the dark
Firing blind, firing wild
I'm a shot in the dark
No stopping me, you'll never see
Lord I'm a shot in the dark
Now I live in other days, I take my time
I make my way down streets where no one sees the signs
Can I learn the simple truth and face the fact?
No matter where I am I never can go back
'Cause I'm a shot in the dark
Firing blind, firing wild
I'm a shot in the dark
No stopping me, you'll never see
'Cause I'm a shot in the dark
I'm a shot in the dark
Firing blind, firing wild
I'm a shot in the dark
No stopping me, you'll never see
I'm a shot in the dark
Firing blind, firing wild
I'm a shot in the dark
No stopping me, you'll never see
I'm like a shot in the dark
A shot in the dark
I shoot out from the black
Just like a shot in the dark
A shot in the dark
I shoot out from the black
I never can go back
Forever changing tracks
I'm a shot in the dark
