[INTRO]
Take me back to the start
We were innocent and we were young
Mmm, the things we do for the sake of feeling something bigger than being on our own
All in the name of this crazy little thing called love
[VERSE 1]
It’s not the same now
It was so simple
Up late, red wine we’d sip
Clothes got ripped
But now I call
"You coming home yet?"
It’s all grey now
Water rising in the river
Hold my breath
'Cause I’d rather drown
Than wait around
For you to touch me like you used to
[Chorus]
It struck like light, like lightning from above
But I’m not your drug, so why am I fighting for your love?
Spend your time rolling up dollars, looking for power
Putting that powder up your nose
I’m not your drug
So why am I fighting for your love, fighting for your love?
[VERSE 2]
You’re on your way down
The cold sting like December
Just know when you hit the ground
I won’t be around
You love the high more than ever
You keep acting like I don’t know
Like I still believe the lies I’m told
I know better, baby
I’m not blind, blind - no
[Chorus]
It struck like light, like lightning from above
But I’m not your drug, so why am I fighting for your love?
Spend your time rolling up dollars, looking for power
Putting that powder up your nose
I’m not your drug
So why am I fighting for your love, fighting for your love?
[BRIDGE]
Take me back to the start
We were innocent and we were young
Mmm, the things we do for the sake of feeling something bigger than being on our own
All in the name of this crazy little thing called love
[Chorus]
It struck like light, like lightning from above
(Fighting for your love)
But I’m not your drug, so why am I fighting for your love?
Spend your time rolling up dollars, looking for power
Putting that powder up your nose
I’m not your drug
So why am I fighting for your love? (fighting for your love)
It struck like light, like lightning from above
(Lightning from above)
But I’m not your drug, so why am I fighting for your love? (Fighting for your love)
Spend your time rolling up dollars, looking for power
Putting that powder up your nose
I’m not your drug
So why am I fighting for your love, fighting for your love?
