[Intro]          If you’re lookin’ for a fighter who’ll defend you Love you for your freedom I’m your man And I ain’t gonna leave you for the crazy things you’re doin’ Don’t ask me to lend a helpin’ hand You were such a pretty dream as I remember You were young and strong and God was on your side The vision slowly faded like the wonder from your eyes You traded your compassion for your pride [Chorus] But I still believe in all that believed in And I pray to God that you will in the end   You’ll see the golden chances that you’re wastin’ Be the lovin’ beauty that you can [SOLO]                     [Chorus] And I still believe in all that we believed in (yeah yeah) And I pray to God that you will in the end   And you’ll see the golden chances that you’re wastin’ Be the lovin’ beauty that you can [Outro]
