Cannonballs Songtext
If I came a knockin' at your door, I would stand up straight.

And I would tap a friendly two or three, remember what to say.

And I would run my words in my head, right 'em on my hand.

And I would smile a toothful grin at you, and be a truthful man.


Oh and can you settle me down?

Fill my holes with brick and mortar.

Sew me seamless, just a scar of all the things I have done wrong.



Darling won't you hold me close, I'm cold tonight.

I am shooting cannonballs into the night.

All that I can do is hope I've aimed them right.

And I'm sorry that my heart turned colors on you.



If I broke a nervous sweat, darling could you tell?
'Cause I have tossed a coin or two in the wishing well.

But I might seem collected and calm, look you in the eye.

And if my voice cracks, well you know why



Oh and can you settle me down?

Put my pieces back in order.

Knock me senseless, just a scar of all the things I have done wrong.



Darling won't you hold me close, I'm cold tonight.

I am shooting cannonballs into the night.

All that I can do is hope I've aimed them right.

And I'm sorry that my heart turned colors on you.



Darling won't you hold me close I'm cold tonight,

I am shooting cannonballs into the night,

All that I can do is hope I've aimed them right.

And I'm sorry that my heart turned colors,

Sorry that I put that weight,

Sorry that I turned my back on you.
