Lyrics

Broken Arrow
Words and Music © 2004 Henry E. Harris III

Hey ? I?m barely breathing
I had to pinch myself just to make sure I was still among the living
I?ve been hit by love I know
?Cause I feel the searing, searing pain
And I watch you go and I reach for you
Even though I know you don?t feel the same

Chorus:
Love is a broken arrow of misery
Cupid might have been taking aim at the two of us ?
But he only shot me

Love is an insurmountable tower
One I never seem to be able to climb
Like a lone wolf, running in lunatic circles
Barking up at the moon in the sky
There is someone for everyone ? I know
So the story goes
Lies, smoke and mirrors and fairy tales
How would I know

Chorus:
Love is a broken arrow of misery
Cupid might have been taking aim at the two of us ?
But he only shot me

Light streams through the broken windows of my soul
Like a church
The light invades the dark and the dank, like a blinding blinding hurt
And it has left me broken, my eyes no longer see
I wish I could find what you?re looking for
All those things that you couldn?t find in me

Chorus:
Love is a broken arrow of misery
Cupid might have been aiming at the two of us ?
But he only shot me
Yeah, he only shot me

(Solo)

Chorus:
Love is a broken arrow of misery
Cupid might have been aiming at the two of us ?
But he only hit me

Love is a broken arrow of misery
Cupid may have been aiming at the two of us ?
But he only hit me ? yeah, he only shot me
