One Shot in the Dark Songtext
von Little River Band

I was hangin′ from the rafters
Lookin' through the window
Suddenly my ears were out, out in the street
Sirens were screaming from far away
All I can feel is the heat
I was at home only yesterday
Something is happening to me

Scared of what I might find
Frightened for the first time
Feels just like a movie here in my room
Sirens are screaming out in the street
People just run everywhere
Chaos and tension inside the heat
Something is happening out there


One shot in the dark
No one heard the dogs bark
There was one shot in the park last night
One shot in the dark
No one saw the blue spark
There was one shot in the dark last night

Hiding on the rooftop
Staring at the sky
Waiting for my transport
Take me home
Everyone pushing to get away
I just can′t believe what I see
I was at home only yesterday
Something is happening to me

One shot in the dark
No one heard the dogs bark
There was one shot in the park last night
One shot in the dark
No one saw the blue spark
There was one shot in the park last night


One shot in the dark
No one heard the dogs bark
There was one shot in the park last night
One shot in the dark
No one saw the blue spark
There was one shot in the dark last night

(The dogs bark)
(In the park last night)
(Did anybody see it?)
(The blue spark)
(In the park last night)
(Did anybody see it?)
(The dogs bark)
(In the park last night)
(Everybody heard it)

(The dogs bark)
(In the park last night)
(Everybody see it)
(The dogs bark)
(In the park last night)
(Everybody heard it)
