An old sentimental night
You roll me at your sides
You shot me down
Though I had no enemy here
You get me very near and shoot me down
Shoot me down
Your hands they flutter up
Armed and dangerous, my buttercup
And shoot me down in flames

Stand back baby, stand back and let me breathe
I think I must be filin' outta 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
Yeah, wouldn't that be nice?
Yeah, wouldn't that be nice?
Well, wouldn't that be nice?

I look into your eyes
It comes as no great surprise
You're gonna shoot me down
Shoot me down
I know that when you smile
It'll only be a short little while
Shoot me down in flames

Shoot me down
In flames
Shoot me down
In flames
You're gonna shoot me down
Oh, in flames
Shoot me down, shoot me down
In flames
Shoot me down in flames
Shoot me down in flames
Shoot me down in flames
