Bruce Springsteen

Do you still say your prayers little darlin do you go to bed at night
Prayin that tomorrow, everything will be alright
But tomorrows fall in number in number one by one
You wake up and youre dying you dont even know what from
Well they shot you point blank you been shot in the back
Baby point blank you been fooled this time little girl thats a fact
Right between the eyes baby, point blank right between the pretty lies that they tell
Little girl you fell
You grew up where young girls they grow up fast
You took what you were handed and left behind what was asked
but what they asked baby wasnt right
you didnt have to live that life,
I was gonna be your Romeo you were gonna be my Juliet
These days you dont wait on Romeos you wait on that welfare check
and on all the pretty things that you cant ever have and on all the promises
That always end up point blank, shot between the eyes
Point blank like little white lies you tell to ease the pain
Youre walkin in the sights, girl of point blank
and its one false move and baby the lights go out
Once I dreamed we were together again baby you and me
Back home in those old clubs the way we used to be
