Of Battles Lost and Won

OF BATTLES LOST AND WON

Nothing stirs emotion like a passionate kiss
Stolen at the moment of perfection and bliss
Something unexpected, an unspoken wish
Comes stepping from the shadows
And we're reaching for the Moon again
Faith can move a mountain guide a hand or a fist
Love becomes impossible to fight or resist
Mends or ends in heartbreak but we never give in

The skies electrify, the air is full of wonder
Of dreams, realities, of lightning and of thunder
You reach you climb, spread your wings and fly
Your Battle's just begun
This incantation weaves a spell and puts you under
Too late to make the great escape and score the plunder
Are we defined greater than the sum of battles lost and won?

Tidal waves and hurricanes from whispers of thread,
Natural born survivors, we perform and duet
Cinderellas all, we scorn the ball and yet
It plays that old refrain and soon we're dancing to its beat again
Slaves to our devotions, we are marionettes
Love makes us remember things we'd rather forget
That which makes us who we are, don't ever regret

The skies electrify, the air is full of wonder
Of dreams, realities, of lightning and of thunder
You reach you climb, spread your wings and fly
Your Battle's just begun
This incantation weaves a spell and puts you under
Too late to make the great escape and score the plunder
Are we defined greater than the sum of battles lost and won?

The skies electrify, the air is full of wonder
Of dreams, realities, of lightning and of thunder
You reach you climb, spread your wings and fly
Your Battle's just begun
This incantation weaves a spell and puts you under
Too late to make the great escape and score the plunder
Are we defined greater than the sum of battles lost and won?
