Lyrics[edit | edit source]

we are young, heartache to heartache we stand
no promises, no demands
love is a battlefield
we are strong, no one can tell us we're wrong
searchin' our hearts for so long, both of us knowing
love is a battlefield

you're beggin' me to go, you're makin' me stay
why do you hurt me so bad?
it would help me to know
do i stand in your way, or am i the best thing you've had?
believe me, believe me, i can't tell you why
but i'm trapped by your love, and i'm chained to your side

we are young, heartache to heartache we stand
no promises, no demands
love is a battlefield

we are strong, no one can tell us we're wrong
searchin' our hearts for so long, both of us knowing
love is a battlefield

we're losing control
will you turn me away or touch me deep inside?
and before this gets old, will it still feel the same?
there's no way this will die
but if we get much closer, i could lose control
and if your heart surrenders, you'll need me to hold

we are young, heartache to heartache we stand
no promises, no demands
love is a battlefield

we are strong, no one can tell us we're wrong
searchin' our hearts for so long, both of us knowing
love is a battlefield
