We may not have all the answers Oh I know that we can change some of the things that are beyond our control And the vision of us may be blurry But use your heart to see Just follow the beat, the rhythm will lead you right back to me Sometimes it's a game of give and take It's easy to break But hold on and wait Have a little faith I will go down to the last round I'll be your strength to find you when you get lost in the crowd So I'll stand up tall, if by chance I fall Then I'll go down as a casualty of love The battle of us could be simple Escape without being hurt 'Cause love is our shield, keeps us concealed From what could get even worse So baby let me be the soldier Don't be overtaken by pride Just close your eyes, take my hand I promise to keep us alive Sometimes it's a game of give and take It's easy to break But hold on and wait Have a little faith I will go down to the last round I'll be your strength to find you when you get lost in the crowd So I'll stand up tall, if by chance I fall Then I'll go down as a casualty of love All is fair In love and war Knock me down And I'll get back up wanting more Through the fire and rain It makes me numb from the pain That's the price, that's the price, I'll pay And I will go down to the last round I'll be your strength to find you when you get lost in the crowd So I'll stand up tall, and baby if I fall Then I'll go down as a casualty of love
