Lyrics: War of the Roses

 

War of the Roses

All I have to do is see you coming, I get weak at the knees
All I hope is that your love is something I can win by degrees
The actor on the centre stage is about to begin
The battle of the sexes rages; this time I'm aiming to win

The war of the roses
It's friend against friend
What nobody knows is when it's gonna happen
But it's gonna happen in the end
The war of the roses
It's you against me
What nobody knows is how I'm gonna get you
But I'm gonna get you, wait and see
You know you want it
You want it as much as me

All I have to do is close my eyes and just imagine you're mine
All I know is if I stand my ground, it's just a matter of time
Come and drop the false pretences that keep us apart
And when I get through your defences, I'm gonna capture your heart

The war of the roses
It's you against me
What nobody knows is how I'm gonna get you
But I'm gonna get you, wait and see
You know you want it
You want it as much as me

Who knows what all the answers are
I'm gonna take my chances
A kind of ritual dance is all it is
The fight is only ending
When we have both surrendered
And victory is sweet
But there is no defeat in

The war of the roses
It's friend against friend
What nobody knows is when it's gonna happen
But it's gonna happen in the end
The war of the roses
It's you against me
What nobody knows is how I'm gonna get you
But I'm gonna get you, wait аnd ѕee
