Kate & Anna McGarrigle - I Don't Know lyrics

Love... love is like a bullet in a gun Aimed at your heart Tears your heart apart You scream and you bleed Fall down to your knees Reaching for a hand But the hunter turns his back He hears his trumpet sound And the sun is going down You ask me what it's all about I say I don't know Should you stay and work it out I say I don't think so Someone else will come along and Hold you close Someone's lost out in a storm And looking for safe-haven Light your lamp but hold it high Before you let the stranger in You ask me what it's all about I say I don't know Should you stay and work it out Give it up! Let it go! Love is like a bullet in a gun Aimed at your heart Tears your heart apart You scream and you bleed And reach out for a hand And fall down on your knees Man is truly the cruelest of beasts You ask me what it's all about I say I don't know Should you stay and work it out I say I don't think so Life is short and grief can tear a heart apart Life is short , life is sweet This much I know Should you stay and work it out I say I don't think so
