Private Battlefield by The Raphaels (Band) Lyrics

Put down all of my defense
I gave myself without pretence
You were sharpening your words for the offence

I am caught in friendly fire
Hanging here on your barbed wire
In surrender to the cause of your desire

If making love is making war
I wonder who I’m fighting for
But my wounds will heal on our private battlefield
I thought that you were on my side
Now I need a place to hide
’Till the dust has cleared on our private battlefiеld
La da da da

There’s the drеam, and there’s the truth
There’s a question, and the proof
Time to fight, time to lie down and call a truce

We all believe we have a cause
We put our trust in faith and law
’Till we find out in the end that no one wins, but...
Making love is making war
I wonder who I’m fighting for
But my wounds will heal on our private battlefield
I thought that you were on my side
Now I need a place to hide
’Till the dust has cleared on our private battlefield
La da da mmm

There’s no use in me pretending I’m not scared
You caught me cold and unaware
But I pray someday that peace may reign
On our private battlefield

If making love is making war
I wonder who I’m fighting for
But my wounds will heal on our private battlefield
I thought that you were on my side
Now I need a place to hide
’Till the dust has cleared on our private battlefield
La da da da
