Don't shoot for love when it ricochets. Wise lessons learned from a failed relationship.

Ricochet
Just one of those days thinkin’ ‘bout you.
So many dreams that never came true.
Makes me wonder if I ever had a clue...
Just one time I wish I were a cloud,
float over your way and end the doubt.
Rain on your parade and watch you pout.
You know I’d be there laughing out loud.
Can’t say I miss you ‘cause maybe I don’t.
Can’t kiss a prince when he’s really a toad.
Maybe all I did was take the wrong road.
Now it’s time for me to find a new way.
Chip out of stone, not molded in clay.
Keep the good, throw out all the decay.
Don’t shoot for love when it ricochets.
(Refrain)
Don’t shoot for love when it ricochets.
Don’t shoot for love when it ricochets.
All the emotions get in the way –
Don’t shoot for love when it ricochets.
You might say I’ve done my time.
Served my days in this jail of mine –
searchin’ for something I can’t find...
But maybe what I’m lookin’ for
is nothin’ that I should explore –
Somethin’ that will even the score
a happy heart restored before.
Thinkin’ bout shootin’ blanks in my gun.
No reason to run, won’t hurt anyone –
No wounds that can’t be undone.
May not work, it’s hard to say.
Your’re out of my head now anyway.
Learned my lesson the old hard way
Don’t shoot for love when it ricochets.
(refrain)
