Joe Cocker – Love Not War lyrics
(t. Snow / B. Griffin)

Just 24 hours ago the sound my heart made as it broke

Echoed across the room and cut right through the words you spoke.

I don't wanna fight till 3 A. M. Wake up red eyed and start again

My tears won't solve a thing

Do you ever know what your fighting for?
Baby cause I can't take it any more
Lets make love not war
We can get it back like it used to be
Lay down your arms baby come to me
Let's make love not war

If love is oxygen we're cutting off the air supply

You sting and I can't breathe

I need to know, the reason why

If I've been hard to handle I'm the first to apologise

'cause baby this goes both ways

Do you even know what you're fighting for
Baby cause I can't take it any more
Lets make love not war
We can get it back like it used to be
Lay down your arms baby come to me
Let's make love not war
