World War Woman by Matthew Mead Lyrics

Verse 1
I admit I lost my stomach
When I saw the shore
I admit I thought about running
The sky was black, no turning back
Our past is overcast evermore
Now my ships are burning
No chance at returning
Nowhere but you
But you you you
Heavy fire raining above
Sirens sound

Chorus
It’s been a long time coming
Whats a man supposed to do?
The drummer boy is drumming
I’m dangerously close to you
I will not surrender for nothing
Show me love love love
World war woman
Darling no I won’t wave that flag
Verse 2
I didn’t know the cost of fighting
When I left home
Admit I never thought about dying
On this hill, you shoot to kill
But still my tested will keeps moving on
Now my words are drowning
No talking my way out of
This danger with you
With you you you
Steely-eyed stranger, a stone-cold shrug
You’re someone new

Chorus
It’s been a long time coming
Whats a man supposed to do?
The drummer boy is drumming
I’m dangerously close to you
I will not surrender for nothing
Show me love love love
World war woman
Darling no I won’t wave that flag
