[Verse 1]
Ooh did you like the feel of the crime
Do you revel in the lights
Cos you stole my trust tell me why
Your addicted to goodbye

[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me why your fronting on love
Tell me why
Tell me why this isn't enough

[Chorus]
Maybe you were shot and killed by love
Struck down in your prime
Maybe you were shot and killed by love
Not for the first time
Thought I was the one to stop the rain
But you're only gonna shut me out again
Maybe you were shot and killed by love
Your heart's in a chalk line

[Verse 2]
Ooh did you fall so deep that you drowned
Is that why you always want out
When you get too close you would bail
Your addicted to farewells
[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me why your fronting on love
Tell me why
Tell me why I'm never enough

[Chorus]
Maybe you were shot and killed by love
Struck down in your prime
Maybe you were shot and killed by love
Not for the first time
Thought I was the one to stop the rain
But you're only gonna shut me out again
Maybe you were shot and killed by love
Your heart's in a chalk line

[Bridge]
You and me we're only human we get hurt sometimes
I can only take so much before I loose my mind
Is this a waste of time?

[Chorus]
Maybe you were shot and killed by love
Struck down in your prime
Maybe you were shot and killed by love
Not for the first time
Thought I was the one who'd stop the rain
But you're only gonna shut me out again
Maybe you were shot and killed by love
Your heart's in a chalk line
Maybe you were shot and killed by love
Struck down in your prime
Maybe you were shot and killed by love
Not for the first time
Thought I was the one to stop the rain
But you've only gone and shut me out again
Maybe you were shot and killed by love
Killed by love
