[Verse 1]
Love like an arrow
Love like everybody does, everybody does
The dove and the sparrow singing songs above the fly
Water runs like blood

[Pre-Chorus]
The cupid and his henchman are sitting on a fence
And picking out their targets one by one
Some try to fight against them, and some try to find protection
And some get wounded while they're on the run

[Chorus]
Sticks and stones and human bones are all crumbling like paper
I just want my love to know that I went out to save her
I went and got my feelings caught, I tried to indicate her
I got shot and she did not, her broken hearted savior

[Verse 2]
It went down to the marrow
When it hit me I went numb like a razor through a plum
The dove calls the sparrow but he got caught up in the madness
He was easy target practice
Singing as he crashes

[Pre-Chorus]
Cupid and his henchman are sitting on a fence
And they are picking out their targets one by one
Some try to fight against them, some try to find protection
And some get wounded while they're on the run
[Chorus]
Sticks and stones and human bones are all crumbling like paper
I just want my love to know that I went out to save her
I went and got my feelings caught, I tried to indicate her
I got shot and she did not, her broken hearted savior

[Bridge]
And she can thank me later
And she can thank me later
And she can thank me later

[Chorus]
Sticks and stones and human bones are all crumbling like paper
I just want my love to know that I went out to save her
I went and got my feelings caught, I tried to indicate her
I got shot and she did not, her broken hearted savior
