I cannot fight I haven't got a sword or a gun Even if I did I'm not sure whose side I'd be on Cause love battles harder Than the hate that we possess And the battles get harder And you start saying no when you mean yes Here in my bed I'm something you both agreed on I'd up and leave But I'm not sure how fast I could run Cause love is the meter By which we work, play and rest So leave this till morning Till the sun comes up again I can't fight because I'm unarmed And even if I did I'm not sure who I'm with Or what would give Hearts and minds Play with equal strength I sit on the fence Whereas my father lies And mother cries Cause love is the meter By which we work, play and rest So leave this till morning Till the sun comes up again I can't fight because I'm unarmed And even if I did I'm not sure who I'm with Or what would give Hearts and minds Play with equal strength On this battle ground In which we call home But we can't stay here
