Lyrics: Steve Brown/Bill Wray/Jim Wray
Music: Steve Brown/Bill Wray/Jim Wray
Words of silence echo through this lonely room
Just a photograph and dreams that won't come true
I'll never know why
I left you standin' in the rain
Cryin' tears of emptiness it's drivin' me insane
All I wanted was to love you
Never wanted to see you cry
All I need is just to hold you
I just can't say goodbye
Sometimes we raise our guns of pain but
I'll be your defender
Cause if love means war
Then baby I surrender
You use words as weapons
I use love as a shield
So tell me why are we on this battlefield
In a blaze of glory can we rise above these flames
In a world of anger there's got to be a way
Sometimes we raise our guns of pain but
I'll be your defender
Cause if love means war
Then baby I surrender
We're just soldiers from the heart and
I ain't no pretender
So lay down your arms and baby let's surrender
And though my aim is true
I sometimes miss the mark
Ooh, in matters of the heart
But I'd give my life tonight
To hold you in my arms
In a blaze of glory can we rise above these flames
In a world of anger there's got to be a way
I just want to hold you
I just want to love you
I never meant to make you cry
Sometimes we raise our guns of pain but
I'll be your defender
Cause if love means war
Then baby I surrender
We're just soldiers of from the heart
But I ain't no pretender
So lay down your arms and baby let's surrender
Baby let's surrender
Baby let's surrender
Baby let's surrender
Lay down your arms
Baby let's surrender
Baby let's surrender
Baby let's surrender
Baby let's surrender
