Battle Within
Am I hurt?
Only your eyes can hurt me,
And they never will.
For your eyes speak my truth,
The truth that only our hearts know,
That I accept,
That you refuse.
I know and sense your struggle,
Between the love the heart wants,
And the life the mind keeps.
There is a battle within you,
All those who dare engage are doomed to fail,
For the only way to win,
Is not to play.
Oh baby -
I desire you even more,
Cause the battle is for me...
Only your eyes can hurt me,
And they never will.
For your eyes speak my truth,
The truth that only our hearts know,
That I accept,
That you refuse.
I know and sense your struggle,
Between the love the heart wants,
And the life the mind keeps.
There is a battle within you,
All those who dare engage are doomed to fail,
For the only way to win,
Is not to play.
Oh baby -
I desire you even more,
Cause the battle is for me...
