Horseshoes and Hand Grenades Lyrics

Like horseshoes and hand grenades

Sometimes close is good enough, for you and me

The finest imperfections, is an honest recollection

The way, the way, we used to be

We took that apple from the tree

Forbidden fruit, it tastes so sweet

Is it time to put that old horse down?

Those good times all seem reckless now, to me

Red wine on her lips, such a sweet little kiss

She had hurricane eyes and dynamite hips in an hour glass silhouette

I can't soon forget

She wore black stacked heels and a hound's-tooth coat and

She'd sing along to all those songs, I'd play at her request, just to impress

We took that apple from the tree

Forbidden fruit, it tastes so sweet

Is it time to put that old horse down?

Those good times all seem reckless now, to me

Was it at the devil's hand, or the twisted part

Of a perfect plan?

We fell from grace, and to and back

Again and in the end

I found my best friend, in the whole wide world

A bizarre twist of fate

Our perfect little mistake

I found my best friend

Like horseshoes and hand grenades yeah

Sometimes close is good enough, for you and me

The finest imperfections, is an honest recollection

Of the way, the way we were meant to be

We took that apple from the tree

Forbidden fruit, it tastes so sweet

I know that love is reckless now, to me

Is it time to put that old horse down?

Love is reckless, love is endless

But she insisted

You know I never meant to love the girl

Then somehow, she became my world

Love is reckless
