takes faith all day to believe in true love
all night to say no to temptation
with many judging eyes
many pressures in life
feels like I’m going mad
you’re suffering within your own mind
can there just be nothing left to give?
well, can there?
when this war is over
and we fought the good fight
the radio stops playing our favorite songs
cracks in our hearts
but I can still feel them healing
when all that’s left is us
can we just not give a fuck?
always been you and me against the odds
proving every critic wrong
we earned it!… now let us run away
the darkest of memories still arise
knowing we had our share of nasty fights
not knowing if this love would last
weeks went by where we wouldn’t talk
but our hearts kept calling out
rather forgive and forget
storms rage in
but I’m still here to protect you
when this war is over
and we fought the good fight
the radio stops playing our favorite songs
cracks in our hearts
but I can still feel them healing
when all that’s left is us
can we just not give a fuck?
always been you and me against the odds
proving every critic wrong
we earned it!… now let us run away
sun shining down
waves in the ocean
drinking like there’s no tomorrow
feet in the sand
us hand and hand
taking off your sunglasses
getting a good look into your eyes
before kissing you
then picking you up and carrying you off
take you where we can both be alone
