Lyrics

Cupid (Acoustic)

I'm gonna get this perfectly right
I'm gonna get this perfectly right
I've been trying to catch an eye for a lifetime
I'm gonna get this perfectly right
He said, "I'm gonna shoot the perfect bullseye"
Draw the arrow back
Steel yourself
Tighten the string on your bow

Sorry I'm not your guy
Sorry I'm not your guy
Sorry I'm not
I've been waiting for a girl like you
Uh uh uh

And I'm not ready for the change
I'm gonna get this perfectly right
He said, "I'm gonna make the Earth shake tonight"
Pineapple juice, tropical Rubicon courage
Yeah, baby, take my wallet, my round
See my Johnny artfully tucked out
Draw the arrow back
Steel yourself
Tighten the string on the bow, bow
Uh uh uh
I've been waiting for a girl like you
Uh uh uh
I'm not ready for the change
Time to turn, and run from romance
I'm backing out
Hit the target, hit the target another time

Sorry I'm not your guy
Sorry I'm not
Uh uh uh
I've been waiting for a girl like you
Uh uh uh
I'm not ready for the change
Uh uh uh
I've been waiting for a girl like you
Uh uh uh
I'm not ready for the change
