A Shot In The Dark
One time
In Africa
Hunting in the bush
A night hunt
Where it was my turn
To shoot the prey
As it would make a man of me
They would say
The hare in the spotlight
Couldn't agree less
Neither did I
But I digress
So I shot high
In order to miss
Upon hearing the shot
The hare jumped
Into the mist
Catching the bullet
Crisp and clean
This is where we had
From the start
Our one true bond
Our heart to heart
