Shoot Me Down - Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds

Most sentimental nights

I’m in your sights

Shoot me down

There ain’t no enemy here

You keep me very near

And shoot me down

Shoot me down

Your hands, they flutter up

Armed and dangerous

My buttercup

Shoot me down

In flames

Stand back, baby

Stand back and let me breathe

I think I’m fallin' out of here

I can hear the grass grow

I can hear the melting snow

I can feel your breath against my ear

I might just disappear

Wouldn’t that be nice?

Yea, wouldn’t that be nice?

Well, wouldn’t that be nice?

I look into your eyes

Comes as no great surprise

You’re gonna shoot me down

Shoot me down

I know that when you smile

It will only be just a short little while

Shoot me down

In flames

Shoot me down (shoot me down)

In flames (shoot me down)

Shoot me down (shoot me down)

In flames (shoot me down)

You’re gonna shoot me down (shoot me down)

Oh in flames (shoot me down)

Shoot me down

Shoot me down

In flames
