BON JOVI - The Fighter lyrics

rate me

I should write down these words before I lose them

Or write you a song just to use them

Someday you may wanna know who I am, beyond this façade

No guitar in my hand

No I, am not, a writer

These eyes hold no secrets I hide no truths

I am all I am all I was to you

I’m the lie and the promise, the great escape artist

That weed in your garden

In that place you’re still guarding

Well I am not, a liar

I am the fighter, though not a boxer by trade

I am the fighter, a few will remember my name

These are hands that can offer protection

But hid me from my own reflection

I’m that book that ain’t finished,

A sink full of dishes

The horse that didn’t win

The priest that’s still sinning

The spark that starts the fire

I am the fighter, though not a boxer by trade

I am the fighter, a few will remember my name

When loneliness is next to me

Feelit’s a misery

Searching another black eye

On this new jersey turn pike

Counting the headlights

Cause cars just like these just pass me by

I am the fighter, though not a boxer by trade

I am the fighter, a few will remember my name

I am the fighter, though not a boxer by trade

I am the fighter, a fighter’s born but not made

I should write down these words before I lose them

Or write you a song just to use them.
