Shot In The Dark

Me and my friends, we used to fall apart
And piece ourselves back together like a work of art, oh
Mom was a mess, she took it way too hard
I left it tucked in the drawer just like a birthday card, oh

How? How? How? (How?)

How would I know
When these days just come and go?
How would I know
That we would make it this far
From just a shot in the dark?

Ooh, ah, I'm gonna take a shot in the dark
In the dark
Ooh, ah, I'm gonna take a shot in the dark

The greatest thing to ever befall on me
I saw your sister and begged her to set me free, yeah
Ten years have passed of what should be eternity
I still wake up and think that this is what life should be, yeah

How? How? How? How?

How could I know
When these days just come and go?
Oh, how would I know
I'd get all this love
From just a shot in the dark?

Ooh, ah, I'm gonna take a shot in the dark
In the dark (ooh, ah, I'm gonna take a shot in the dark)
In the dark (ooh, ah, I'm gonna take a shot in the dark)
In the dark (ooh, ah, I'm gonna take a shot in the dark)
Lived my whole life like I was ready to die
'Til I finally caught a piece of the sun
With every page, it's getting harder to name each
Street sign I used to pass by, at night when I'd leave your place

And I can't remember your face
Half as much as I remember our fate
I've tried to hold on, but it's just a shame how
Time flies, plans die, and we only get one try
Me and my friends, we used to fall apart
And piece ourselves back together like a work of art

How? How? How? How?

How would I know
When these days just come and go?
How would I know
I'd get all this love, 'ove-'ove,-'ove from just a shot in the dark?

Ooh, ah, I'm gonna take a shot in the dark
In the dark (ooh, ah, I'm gonna take a shot in the dark)
In the dark (ooh, ah, I'm gonna take a shot in the dark)
In the dark (ooh, ah, I'm gonna take a shot—)
