That night I waited too long For someone who wouldn't come Who would've made it home to me I went for a walk in the street
Empty eyes and shady faces ( shady faces ) People hustling and people wandering ( people wandering ) And I just found that in their places The streets were not that frightening, no
Guns don't kill people People kill people I said Guns don't kill people People kill people I said
I left it all, went to the mall That led me to a noisy cafe And there she was, between two cups Sweet and amazing and lofty
Just one glance and love, it hit me ( one love hit me ) Felt like being in a movie ( in a movie, yeah ) Was she the one I was waiting for? A beauty, a blue-eyed killer, yeah
This cruel world is such a mess I went back home to my loneliness It was too late, it was too late To go to sleep I think I might be tired And I try, I try to sing All I remember is that line
Guns don't kill people People kill people I said guns don't kill people People kill people I said guns don't kill people People kill people I said guns don't kill people It's people who kill people I said
