A man stopped me on the street
he said "excuse me miss, you have the brightest smile i've seen"
i looked at him and blushed a little
i'm in love, does it show?
where once there were tears now only
the sweet memory of your gentle kiss lies
the scars he once made all black and blue
now replaced with your sensual caress
oh all is fare in love and war
but if i'd known my war
would earn me your sweet love
i would have fought for you sooner
i want nothing but to have your soothing voice
whisper sweet nothings in my ear
cup my face in your hands and tell me
no matter how hard i run from love
you'll follow me until my feet give out
