“We are young Heartache to heartache we stand No promises, no demands Love is a battlefield We are strong, no one can tell us we're wrong Searchin' our hearts for so long Both of us knowing Love is a battlefield You're beggin' me to go then makin' me stay Why do you hurt me so bad It would help me to know Do I stand in your way, or am I the best thing you've had Believe me, believe me, I can't tell you why But I'm trapped by your love and I'm chained to your side We are young Heartache to heartache we stand No promises, no demands Love is a battlefield We are strong, no one can tell us we're wrong Searchin' our hearts for so long Both of us knowing Love is a battlefield We're losing control Will you turn me away or touch me deep inside And before this gets old, will it still feel the same There's no way this will die But if we get much closer, I could lose control And if your heart surrenders, you'll need me to hold”
