TROY LILLICH (LYRICS)
"FIGHT TO LOVE YOU"
(VERSE)
I HEAR THE SOUND OF THE BELL INSIDE THE BOXING RING
WHEN WE DANCE GLOVE TO GLOVE LIKE ENEMIES
IN THE SPOTLIGHT
IÂ?VE WATCHED OUR MARRIAGE VOWS VANISH LIKE A GHOST
AND NOW ALL THATÂ?S LEFT OF OUR LOVE IS A DARK SHADOW
HERE IN THE DARKNESS, IS THERE LIGHT
(CHORUS)
WHY DO I HAVE TO FIGHT
TO KEEP MY WOMANÂ?S LOVE
WHY DO YOU KNOCK ME TO THE GROUND
DEFEATING BOTH OF US
YOUÂ?VE GOT ME UP AGAINST THE ROPES
KNOCKING MY HEART OUT COLD
IT'S TIME WE SETTLE THE SCORE WITH THE TRUTH
WHY DO I HAVE TO FIGHT TO LOVE YOU
(VERSE)
WE'VE SEEN FEAR IN THE EYES OF OUR LITTLE GIRL
WHEN SHE WATCHES GLASS MEMORIES SHATTER HER LITTLE WORLD
AND LOSES HOPE
THEN SHE WITNESSED HER MOMMY TAKE OFF HER DADDY'S RING
WHEN YOU KNOCKED ME DOWN AND FELL OUT OF LOVE WITH ME
OH, IN OUR DAUGHTER'S EYES, WE'RE HEROES
(REPEAT CHORUS)
(INSTRUMENTAL)
(CHORUS)
YOU'VE GOT ME UP AGAINST THE ROPES
KNOCKING MY HEART OUT COLD
IT'S TIME WE SETTLE THE SCORE WITH THE TRUTH
WHY DO I HAVE TO FIGHT TO LOVE YOU
OH, FIGHT TO LOVE YOU
