I've got a girl
She tastes like rain on my tongue
She's got the moon in her hips
And her eyes burn up like the sun
When I'm gone from my girl
When I leave her alone
It ain't nothing that I'm running from
There's war in my blood
I've still got wars to be won
My baby is soft and sweet
Somewhere between a flower and a gun
And where my girl is now
Someday that's where I want to be from
But love is dollar that's already spent
And love is a song that we've sung
There's war in my blood
Love ain't the tune in my lungs
So here's my consolation
An opponent is enough
It takes two to go to war and only one to fall in love
I had a girl
I know precisely what made her run
Her skin was like the sky
It made my heart beat itself like a drum
I long for my girl
When I meet her in my dreams
I tell her she'll always be my only one, yeah
There's war in my blood
There ain't a thing love could've done
There's war in my blood
