Love Victory
Ne-Yo · Other Songs - Ne-Yo
Feels like a bullet through my heart
When I'm fighting you.
We need to heal our wounds, you and me,
No more war just a love victory!
Together as one we've crossed all borders,
Thought our love would never change!
Now we're spinning in circles, mapped out,
We've caused too much damage for me to take.
Can't ignore it, won't camouflage it,
Almost turning into a battlefield (no)
My heart's exhausted, we act like enemies,
This can't go on, we need a change!
Can we (recognize our differences?)
Or can we (love the way we first did?)
Please don't retreat from me, let's keep the peace
Together a greater love true!
Chorus: (x2)
It's like a war, never love - gotta battle though,
Feels like a bullet through my heart
When I'm fighting you.
We need to heal our wounds, you and me,
No more war just a love victory!
Here we both stand, face to face,
Keep seeing these flashes of distant memories
Many hurtful words said, presses like a blade
Bought a barricade, go to war today?
History, please don't repeat again,
Tell me will ever this war end?
It's up to you and me - can't take defeat
Keep fighting like enemies!
This can't go on,
Can we (recognize our differences?)
Or can we (love the way we first did?)
Please don't retreat from me, let's keep the peace
Together a greater love true!
Chorus: (x2)
It's like a war, never love - gotta battle though,
Feels like a bullet through my heart
When I'm fighting you.
We need to heal our wounds, you and me,
No more war just a love victory!
Oh, oh, oh
Keep marchin'!
Keep on marchin'!
Oh, oh, oh
Let's march in the name of love
Come on one more time !
Oh, oh, oh
Keep marchin'!
Oh, oh, oh!
Keep on marchin'!
Yeah, right step, left step,
Let's march in the name of love!
Chorus: (x2)
It's like a war, never love - gotta battle though,
Feels like a bullet through my heart
When I'm fighting you.
We need to heal our wounds, you and me,
No more war just a love victory!
