Battlefield Lyrics - Singles - Jamie Stevens

BATTLEFIELD 

words and music by Nick Lowe and Paul Carrack 

(verse 1) 

I live on a battlefield 

Surrounding by the ruins of the love we built 

And them destroyed between us 

The smoke has cleared 

As I stumble through the rubble 

I'm dazed, seeing double 

And I'm truly mystified 

(chorus) 

My new home is a shell-hole filled 

With tears and muddy water 

And bits of broken heart 

All around, there is desolation 

Scenes of devestation 

Of a love been torn apart 

(verse 2) 

I live on a battlefield 

Though one where not one 

Single drop of blood has spilled 

Is no less horryfying 

Sweet memories 

Of a bygone situation 

Lie shattered, torn and battered 

And scattered all around 

(repeat chorus) 

(bridge) 

Everything that can, has gone wrong 

It's gonna take spine to carry on 

Like a drownin' man Im coming up for air 

I'm looking for another survivor 

I can't see one anywhere 

(repeat chorus)
