I've never thought it before, now it's all I can see
I don't get no reward, without trading in cruelty
You're asking to suffer, oh, why?
I've never put the two things together
Might see heaven tonight, might get turned away
There's only one that you want
Probably one and the same
People want each other, oh, why?
But I've never put the two things together
Why would you fight for love?
Why would you pay to hurt yourself?
There's still nothing to hold onto
But your pride
Why would you fight for love?
Why can't you fight for something else?
There's still nothing to hold onto
But your pride
Ho ooh uh
You're faithful as hell to what you've never had
Walk in the streets throwing good after bad
When I could be someone for you
Somebody who will hold you together
I did what I can, might be too much
I'll give what I need, I'll give you love
And all that I'm asking
Is for you to put my whole world together
Why would you fight for love?
Why would you pay to hurt yourself?
There's still nothing to hold onto
But your pride
Why would you fight for love?
Why can't you fight for something else?
There's still nothing to hold onto
But your pride
Ho ooh uh
But your pride
You might see heaven
You might get turned away
There's still nothing to hold onto
But why would I, why would I go that way?
Why would I fight for love?
Why would I pay to hurt myself?
There's still nothing to hold onto
But your pride
Why would I fight for love?
Why can't I fight for something else?
There's still nothing to hold onto
But your pride
Hmm
