lyrics

Battle of Heart
August 2020

The beauty of your smile
Is in the beauty of your eyes
Its in the way you make me laugh
And you make me cry
And you’ve made me cry

Its in the way you look so free
You’ll be who you want to be
Its in the way you look at me
You see who you want me to see

When I play these battles of heart
I go like a dynamite through your arms of steel

The beauty of your lies
Is how I can never tell
Its in the way I make you laugh
But I’ll make you cry
And I’ve made you cry

Its in the way you look so free
You’ll be who you want to be
Its in the way you look at me
You see who you want me to see

When I play these battles of heart
I go like a dynamite through your arms of steel

We battle, we battle, we battle
We fight till the end of it
We’re fighting, we’re fighting, we’re fighting
We’ll fight till the end of it

Try to push me in the middle of the road
Try to push my hands tied behind my back
I’ll skip a beat, skip a step yeah,
Skip a beat, skip a step yeah

When I play these battles of heart
I go like a dynamite through your arms of steel

We battle, we battle, we battle
We fight till the end of it
We’re fighting, we’re fighting, we’re fighting
We’ll fight till the end of it
