Cupid shot an arrow and it landed quite deep in the palm of my calloused hand
I tried to pull it out but it wouldn't seem to budge so I left it to stand
Over the next few weeks, a change came about me that I didn't really understand
Oh but it doesn't take long for a feeling that strong to completely over take a man

Oh and I felt it, the feeling wouldn't go away
So I told the young cupid that she must take it back
I know its gonna cause pain
Oh but the arrow found its way from my hand into my heart
and it buried down as deep as it could
cnd it determined the way that I lived each day
and I do remember feeling good

Run away from your home, you might make it
Run away from your heart, and you will always look behind
I tried to love you, but I felt like you wouldn't take it
cnd now the arrows gone through my heart
and I'm crying

Once upon a time there was a pearly white castle in the hills overlooking the sea
cnd all the people in the town and the villages around all remarked it as the place of their dreams
Oh but what they didn't know is that once inside, the castle it was in disrepair
Oh the king in a rage went and flew his pearly cage and he left his lovely queen there

Run away from your home, you might make it
Run away from your heart, and you will always look behind
I tried to love you, but I felt like you wouldn't take it
cnd now the arrows gone through my heart
and I'm crying

Run away from your home, you might make it
Run away from your heart, and you will always look behind
I tried to love you, but I felt like you wouldn't take it
cnd now the arrows gone through my heart
and I'm crying
