Bruised Up and skinny as a stray No one I know so underpaid Been around the block about a 100 times today Love soldiers on, love soldiers on There's nothing you can do, love soldiers on Lock it out and don't return its call Swear you've never seen its face at all Throw it in the river, lose it in the storm It will show up in its bandages tomorrow at your door I know you've been hurt before, but it's beat up even more
Scars you've never seen before, from every country and every war You think that love is lost You're swear you've run it off But it hardly asks for nothing, it's got courage like the wind Out there in the streetlights waiting to come in Love soldiers on, love soldiers on There's noting you can do, love soldiers on
