Lyrics
It’s a hard run
Loving like we do
It takes way too long to get over you
And remember the line we drew
But call me over and I’m coming through
We’re searching for the night together
Where we don’t fall apart
Might be now and it might be never
It’s just another shot in the dark
It’s just another shot in the dark
And I wonder what it all means
Strange conversation with you in my dreams
And I don’t know what I’m gonna do
I’ve loved seven other women and they all were you
We had a run of bad romances
They always missed the mark
So close your eyes now and take your chances
It’s just another shot in the dark
It’s just another shot in the dark
I want you in the worst way
Is the gate code still your birthday
If you thought you met your Casanova
And he left you with a broken heart
Remember when it’s done and over
It was only just a shot in the dark
It was only just a shot in the dark
It’s just another shot in the dark
It’s just another shot in the dark

This new album sounds like a mix of Phil Collins/Peter Gabriel/Genesis, Don Henley, Steve Winwood, and Sting - and I love it. It's got the mid-to-late 80s / early 90s soft pop rock feel. By the way, Mayer is among the best living guitarists and if you don't believe me, see a live show. He has taken his guitar solo skills to another level and Clapton puts him among the best to ever play (saying a lot).

[@harpsgalore6584]

One of my favorite John Mayer songs now. And my list was already so long

[@CoffeeFuelledGenius]

Bro why didn’t I grow up in the 80’s 😩 thank you Mayer for letting me live in a fantasy for 40 minutes. Incredible album.

[@rachanechaneiamborisut9240]

กกกหดหด

[@GR_BackingTracks]

This song was the best part of the '80s...

[@forester057]

Everything obvious screams 80s and then the tucked in shirt, Richard Marx hair and the love song sung through his nose in places seals the deal.

[@DOGOID]

Coldplay Higher Power also has an 80s vibe, seems to be an upcoming trend

[@manuellabaldi6450]

Aaaaaaaaaaaa

[@xoxo4Korey]

This man's brilliant humour is lost on so many people. I have never been equal parts moved and bent over in hysterics before today.

[@vincentkennedymcmahon514]

I’m sure you have been bent over before 🤣

[@Rockstaralan]

Exactly! I have to agree that, despite the seeming seriousness of much of his music (not a bad thing, of course), the man is also funny as hell, too! IMO, he could've easily carved out a career as a standup comic, had music not panned out for him like it did. As for the video, I too couldn't help but crack up at his hilarious take on all those cheesy dance moves and the "anguished" pounding on the wall in time to the music, which permeated many a video back in the 80's...In addition to being moved by such a bloody fantastic song as this!

[@amberfernandez8576]

Yes! It took me a sec but totally hilarious

This is the most generic boring sounding trash he’s ever released. The whole nostalgia 80s thing is cool and all but this album ain’t it.

[@Johnylancaster]

I would be so happy if John finally finds his right one

[@gillmeter]

That hook definitely has a "died in your arms tonight" Vibe. Has a Fields of Gold thing going on as well. Definitely has that "I've heard this before, but I can't put my finger on it."

[@cabalenproductions6480]

Yes Early 1990's Soft Rock vibes here!!

[@RonZabrocki]

John is so fucking with everyone. Is this the work of a genius or a madman? No matter... Release the dove. Answer the neon phone. Look over your leather clad shoulder. Bang on the wall in time. Dance like Billy Squire in a pink shirt...They'll love it. I vote Genius. The world needs more 80's.

[@sheeshyouguys]

Release the dove 🤣

[@olemattsmusak]

Love the ‘release that dove’… 🤟🏼😂

[@GrantTregellas]

Its like in 1990 we took a long detour through grunge, nu metal, post-punk etc only to arrive back with music we actually really want to hear again.

[@lukeschmitz857]

When JOHN MAYER starts dancing at the end..I felt them positive vibes....my dude knows he is all that and some...love the vibes bro

[@ahmadabdallah2896]

I play random lists from youtube when I am working and John Mayer often comes up because I listen to some of his songs, lately, I have been getting to know his other songs too and whenever I hear a nice song I look up the date and I often find that the song was published 5, 6, 7 years ago and I get a little sad that I missed it all that time, but this is a very new song and I am here to just hay I am happy that I am going to grow older with this song.

[@lawsoncromwell]

Rando: “John, I bet you won’t make a goofy 80’s themed song” John: “say no more fam” …one album later…

[@jmoore20121992]

I never expected to laugh that hard. The dove flying out of his hand had me rolling. This is absolutely brilliant. I can’t wait for the rest of this album.

[@thesdubby]

Agreed, the 80's drama is so extreme it's hilarious but also the music is so good. Stoked for the album

[@sunnydaze5]

The dove was ridiculous

[@sanakamran007]

I lost my shit at the dove part too 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@asuvw]

My thoughts it's that he exaggerated on purpose. Almost like a love letter to the cheesy MTV era aesthetics, but the music is so good that it works!

[@lynnbortnick]

Seriously. So hysterical and a perfect take on videos back in the day.

@@Thetimeisnow535 Not everyone has to get married and have kids, it's a terrible idea for lots of people, but John Mayer has said that's what he wants. I'm sure he's mature enough to find the right person for himself and have a happy marriage.
