Analysis of Tug of War
Why does our love feel like a Tug of War
Was I that much of a bore
When you walked out the door
All my tears started to pour
so weak I fell to the floor
Let me see your heart to the core
Show me the passion you store
Instead of the deep roar
Let my soul soar
While you take your tour
'cause you don't want me no more...
