When Love Goes To War
Brian Fairweather
I feel that I've lasted a long line of broken hearts
You say it's over
I want to talk I never thought I would fall apart
But I still love you
Give me the time I'll show you I'm not your enemy
Let's end the cold war
One night is all that I ask
I'm ready to fight 'cause I want you back
A heart needs defending
When love goes to war
There's no happy ending
When love goes to war
Tears in the night wash over eyes filled with memories
Of your affections
Where do I stand I never planned on this misery
I need protection
You walk away so easily from the battle grounds
Of my emotions
All's fair in passion and war
But my disadvantage is I'm still in love
I don't want your sympathies
Just give me what I ask
If I appear to make demands
It's only 'cause I want you back
