Would you be content to see me crying
After all those little games you put me through?
After all I've done for you you're lying
Wouldn't it be nice to tell the truth?
Didn't somebody somewhere say
You're gonna take a fall
I gave you everything
Now here's the curtain call
Shot through the heart as I lay there alone
In the dark through the heart
It's all part of this game that we call love
Now you've come back here to say you're sorry
But I don't know who you're talking to
It could be the man I used to be, girl
But I've grown up and now I'm over you
Standing there just a live wire
With nowhere left to turn
You were gonna set the world on fire
When will you ever learn?
Shot through the heart as I lay there alone
In the dark through the heart
It's all part of this game that we call love
Didn't somebody somewhere say
You're gonna take a fall
I gave you everything
Now here's the curtain call
And I'm shot
Baby does what baby please
And baby must have what she sees
But not this time, the tables turned
Baby, you just got burned
Shot through the heart as I lay there alone
In the dark through the heart
It's all part of this game that we call love

This was a dark period for Jon. You can tell it in the writing. It's funny how many times I have seen "You Give Love a Bad Name" called Shot through the heart! It's so funny. I actually took a Bon Jovi quiz on the net and they did that, I had to write in and correct them on the title of the song! ROOKIE MISTAKE ON THEIR PART. I'm no rookie when it comes to Bon Jovi, you would be shocked at some of the information I found before they really hit it big with slippery when wet....secret stuff, phone numbers, homes, etc. but I'm not some crazy fan who will go there and stalk him. I have too much respect for him for that!
