Washington - Lover/Soldier lyrics

rate me

es

Yes, I know

Yes, I know that when you hear this

You'll feel strange, I know

Still out of sight

But I've got this mouth

That's full of dynamite, tonight

Tonight

Lover, you're a soldier

You're a long, long way from home

A long way from your mother

And you do it on your own

I don't belong to you

And you don't belong to me

I don't think we need to

Cos it's just so easy

So I survive

So I just try to get through

And stay alive

You do the same

Do the same

I see you running

Through the rain

Lover, you're a soldier

You're a long, long way from home

A long way from your mother

And you do it on your own

I don't belong to you

And you don't belong to me

I don't think we need to

Cos it's just so easy

I got lucky

When you said sorry

And I couldn't stop now

If I knew how

And if it's true what they say

About love and hard work

Well, alright

Cos maybe people in love

Are all on the same side when they fight

And everyone's raging and railing

And screaming for war

But you haven't got anything

That I would fight you for

To fight you

Lover, you're a soldier

You're a long, long way from home

A long way from your mother

And you do it on your own

I don't belong to you

And you don't belong to me

But I don't think we need to

Cos it's just easy

Lover, you're a soldier

You're a long, long way from home

A long way from your mother

And you do it on your own

We can take our chances

Cos we knew it going in

There'd be lots of dancing

But we'd never, ever play to win
