Tug Of War Lyrics - Everybody Got Their Something - Nikka Costa

There are times in our lives 

When our hearts fear our minds 

We can't afford to ignore 

But our hearts are beating for 

My soul wants to go one way 

But my heart and mind playing a tug of war with me baby 

My soul wants to go one way 

But my heart and mind playing a tug of war with me baby 

A tug of war with me baby 

Cut to the truth and watch it bleed 

And in the wounds just what we need 

It's everywhere if we dare 

To trust the fall to lead you there 

My soul wants to go one way 

But my heart and mind playing a tug of war with me baby 

My soul wants to go one way 

But my heart and mind playing a tug of war with me baby 

A tug of war with me baby 

My soul wants to go one way 

But my heart and mind playing a tug of war with me baby 

A tug of war with me baby 

My soul wants to go one way 

But my heart and mind playing a tug of war with me baby 

A tug of war with me baby 

Let me out of this cage 

I'm begging for mercy, I'm being your slave 

What do you want me to see, my eyes are inflamed 

With the rage that's among us when we come of age 

There's nothing I don't know, just hasn't come to me yet 

We're only trying to remember what we choose to forget 

Everybody's a child that is open and free 

If we can trust ourselves to be indiscreet with our love 

My soul wants to go one way 

But my heart and mind playing a tug of war with me baby 

A tug of war, a tug of war 

My soul wants to go one way 

But my heart and mind playing a tug of war with me baby 

A tug of war with me baby 

My soul wants to go one way 

But my heart and mind playing a tug of war with me baby 

A tug of war, a tug of war with me baby 

My soul wants to go one way 

But my heart and mind, my heart and mind
