Cupid & Psycho Lyrics - Singles - John Wesley Harding

As I was out walking one night in the park 

Cupid was out on the town in the dark 

And I couldn't resist as I saw him walk by 

So I asked him why he had a tear in his eye 

He said, "I'm an outlaw but my hands are clean 

And I love this girl who won't look twice at me 

I've made love work for others and now it's my turn 

But these arrows are useless, they just crash and burn 

They're wide of the mark" 

Cupid and Psycho, they're a couple much better apart 

When Cupid's in love 

Well, it's Psycho left holding the darts 

And it tears us apart 

Psycho was sitting on her balcony 

Framed on the wall by a heart made of ivy 

Cupid said, "Stay here with me, you gonna see what I mean" 

And he climbed on the tree that led up to his dream 

And she shook on the branch and he fell to my feet 

Bruised but still breathing his crestfallen love 

Cupid said to her, "Throw your hair from above" 

She said, "Just leave me alone 'cause I'm bound for my bed 

All these voices I'm hearing, well, they're just in my head 

All the voices I'm hearing" 

Cupid and Psycho, they're a couple much better apart 

When Cupid's in love 

Well, it's Psycho left holding the darts 

And it tears us apart 

While Cupid is crying, love waits to be born 

Broken in pieces, alone on the floor 

He'd let go of the reins, now the ride was insane 

If he didn't get back on, will love live again 

Could we be in love? Would our hearts beat again? 

Could I love you? Could you love me? 

Cupid and Psycho, they're a couple much better in two 

When Cupid's in love 

Psycho ends up so confused 

Cupid and Psycho, they're a couple much better apart 

When Cupid's in love 

Well, it's Psycho left holding the darts 

And it tears us apart
