Fight For Love

(album: Fickle Heart - 1979)

Well, I was walking down this cold and empty boulevard
When music started drifting to my ears
And memories of days I spent together with that girl
So hazy and confused filled my eyes with tears

And as I heard that music playing
A voice inside my mind said:
"Got to fight for love
When you hear that music playing
Got to fight for love
And that voice inside your mind says
Got to fight for love
Got to pick a card and play it wide and high
Got to fight for love
A king to beat a king there ain't no time
Got to fight for love".

From all those disenchanted lovers cries
Of reason and good advice to me
Why should anybody have to pay the price for leaving
A breaking up that never had to be

And as I heard that music playing
A voice inside my mind said:
"Got to fight for love
When you hear that music playing
Got to fight for love
And that voice inside your mind says
Got to fight for love
Got to pick a card and play it wide and high
Got to fight for love
A king to beat a king there ain't no time
Got to fight for love".

So I'm walking down this cold and empty boulevard
A girl skips by the corner of my eye
Someone slams a car door and I turn around (to see)
And mad as escaping birds I start to fly

And as I heard that music playing
A voice inside my mind said:
"Got to fight for love
When you hear that music playing
Got to fight for love
And that voice inside your mind says
Got to fight for love
Got to pick a card and play it wide and high
Got to fight for love
A king to beat a king there ain't no time
Got to fight for love".
