Lyrics
Lovehunters ©2023 Creative InRoads, LLC
If you wanted to write this song
Tell me what would you want to hear
Would you write a song about a need for love
Or, isn't your mind too clear
Seems to be a lot of songs about love
Lonely nights and flaming romance
People sing about how you can't live without
But, they don't give you half a chance
Lovehunters / Shootin' with an empty gun
Lovehunters / Hungry and on the run
Lovehunters / Aiming with our eyes shut tight
All this time we been callin' it love
When it's sex that's been in our sights
Tell me I'm not right
If you wanted to write a magazine
Tell me what would you want to say
Would you write about a need for love
Fifty steps on how to get your way
Seems to be a lot of books about love
Lonely nights and flaming romance
People write about how you can't live without
But, they don't give you half a chance
Lovehunters / Shootin' with an empty gun
Lovehunters / Hungry and on the run
Lovehunters / Aiming with our eyes shut tight
All this time we been callin' it love
When it's sex that's been in our sights
Tell me I'm not right

If you wanted to act in a movie
Who would you want to be
Would you want to be the cool winning lover
Score the innocent and get away free
Seems to be a lot of movies about love
Lonely nights and flaming romance
People write about how you can't live without
But, they don't give you half a chance
Lovehunters / Shootin' with an empty gun
Lovehunters / Hungry and on the run
Lovehunters / Aiming with our eyes shut tight
All this time we been callin' it love
When it's sex that's been in our sights
Tell me I'm not right
