he was staring at the (window?) keyhole

concentrating on what it was

something’s on his mind when he tries to describe it he stalls

he wants her deep confessions, but she holds back like a dam

he told her all his inner thoughts and wants her to understand

he didn’t tell her for nothing something was in his plan

She was hoping he would go away and maybe forget the things they did

but she was no good at hiding and even worse at staying hid

he wants it out in the open, put the cards on the table

she wanted him to think love was unlikely, not credible

she tried avoiding him as much as she was able

and they’re

shooting it out at the romance ranch tonite

shooting it out at the romance ranch tonite

hang on to your hearts

love is the target

shootout at the romance ranch tonite

the candles are on their last lights

wax is dripping on the floor

tipped over half spilled bottles

and cotton is stuffed into the keyhole of the door

staring face to face instead of running back

and hiding

one of them is screaming the other one is crying

you never know what happens when the bullets start flying

so they are

shooting it out at the romance ranch tonite

shooting it out at the romance ranch tonite

hang on to your hearts

love is the target

shootout at the romance ranch tonite
