War of Love

We met on the battlefield with a closed heart and open mind Like a solider charging into battle we moved in totally blind We commanded our passions our fears and our doubt Winning or losing the contest is what its all about When the conflict is over when push comes to shove Which side will prevail in this war of love We had a plan for this endearing battle But we were both strong and our nerves did not rattle You moved your feelings like pawns in a game I fell for them and I’d never be the same When the conflict is over when push comes to shove Which side will prevail in this war of love Both sides were affected in the first skirmish With some overpowering hugs and a damaging kiss We were both heart brokenly wounded but we wanted more We counted the casualties and kept a close score When the conflict is over when push comes to shove Which side will prevail in this war of love The struggle is over and we know our true desire We stopped the attack and called for a cease fire We signed a peace treaty and struck a bargain Now were allies of love and I call you my best friend
