I pull my boots off, throw my weapons on the floor
Cry my eyes out, in my private little war
Well it seems I've been a soldier
Heaven knows I've been no saint
In my camouflage and armor, cold heart and grease paint
To you this has no meaning the Armistice laid down
The armies are all quiet and the guns don't make a sound
'Cause you melted the steel walls, tore down the barbed wire
Filled in the trenches, demanded a cease fire
And now you're leaving, there's nothing I can do
I want you to know you're gonna take me with you
Well now three on a match is suicide in the foxhole of my mind
And way off in the distance the air raid sirens whine
And they sing your song of rescue to my tattered worn out shell
You drag me to your safety from this my front line hell
'Cause you melted the steel walls, tore down the barbed wire
Filled in the trenches, demanded a cease fire
And now you're leaving, there's nothing I can do
I want you to know you're gonna take me with you
The blood that was spilled in the heartache before
Left road maps of scars that I never could ignore
'Cause you melted the steel walls, tore down the barbed wire
Filled in the trenches, demanded a cease fire
And now you're leaving, there's nothing I can do
I want you to know you're gonna take me with youSure you do
(You know how to make it right)
So nice
(You know how to love me
There's no denying
(Sweet as morning light)
Sooner or later
I knew you'd come my way
You're welcome to my love
Just promise that you'll stay
Chorus:
You know how to love me...Right
In a special way
You know how to love me...Tonight
And I wanna say
You know how to love me
You're the real that I feel never go away
Seeing's believin'
Don't you know you're a dream come true
Ain't nothin' deceivin''bout the way that I'm lovin' you
(You know how to love me) You know, you know
(You know how to make it right)
I can feel it
(You know how to love me)
No doubt about it
(Sweet as morning light)
Nothing's forever
That's what people say
But each time that we're together
Forever and a day
(Chorus)
