Phil King – The War I Cannot Win Lyrics

You took a little piece of me, now I’ve got to learn to live without
So softly with your fingertips, you forced it out of my mouth
Oh why must you test me this way love
Do you really want to see me break love

I will lay me down down down down at your feet
And I’m holding out my hands saying please do what you will with me
And I’ve come to understand that this is a war I cannot win
Not if you ever cross my path again, ever again

It all happened so quickly, looking back I never stood a chance
Oh eveything in place like it must have been arranged in advance
Why must you test me this way love,
Do you really want to see me break love

I will lay me down, down down down at your feet
And I’m holding out my hands saying Come on do what you will with me
And I’ve come to understand that this is a war I cannot win
Not if you ever cross my path again, ever again
