Lyrics

The Gunman

When I enter a room
I will only sit facing the door
It's love I'm looking for
As I search every face
I start to wondering is this the place

CHORUS:
For love is a gunman and no mercy has he
He'll hunt you down until the day death sets you free
Love is a gunman and he's coming to town
You'll met his glaze both barrels blaze
Staring you down
Love is the gunman and no mercy has he
This time his sights are set on me

You can run, you can hide,
You can even saddle up and ride
But love won't be deny
You can wear a disguise
But it isn't fooled by alibis

Chorus

For love is a gunman, love is a gunman
Love is a gunman and no mercy has he
This time his sights are fixed on me
