when love goes to war

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 affection

where do i stand i never planned on this misery

i need protection

you walk away so easily from the battle grounds

of my emotion

all's fair in passion and war

but my disadvantage is i'm still in love

a heart needs defending - when love goes to war

there's no happy ending - when love goes to war

a heart needs defending - when love goes to war

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

all's fair in passion and war

but my disadvantage is i'm still in love

a heart needs defending - when love goes to war

there's no happy ending - when love goes to war

a heart needs defending - when love goes to war

there's no happy ending - when love goes to war

when love goes to war - there's no happy ending
