Paintings they fall off the walls
When you come in traipsing in with your horse
Your six string guitar is a mess
Silver bullets hanging off your dress
Now I remember what I meant to be
To replace your history
Who let that girl into this room
So innocent yet doomed

[Chorus]
Who shot the poison arrow
Who shot the poison arrow
Who shot the poison arrow
Who shot the poison arrow

Awh here she comes
And she's playing hard to get
Awh there she goes
A promise you can never forget

Mirrors, they black out and freeze 
When you pull me in too too deep
Every time I handcuff you 
I know I come closer to the truth
Now I remember what I meant to say
To count all my blessings today
Who let that girl into this room
So innocent yet doomed

[Chorus]

Awh here she comes
Yeah she's playing hard to get
Awh there she goes
A promise you can never forget
