She stood in our room With a sad look on her face And I know The tears were fallin' because of me I can see it in her eyes Now I've been tied up Comin' home and she's already sleepin' She doesn't feel loved at all (at all) These days
She used to wanna hear every song I would write Now every melody is just enough To remind her of the time she doesn't spend with me I see the flag in her hand and it's white I guess she's gettin' tired of losin' (losin') The war against the music
I never cheated I wasn't out with the guys every night I just believe in my dreams (my dreams) They've taken longer than I thought And it's too late now I got my foot in the dark And I can't stop this train now From taking me to the stars
She used to wanna hear every song I would write Now every melody is just enough To remind her of the time she doesn't spend with me I see the flag in her hand and it's white I guess she's gettin' tired of losin' (losin') The war against the music
She's at war, war Hey, (she's at war) The war against the music She's at war, war (She's at war)
The war against the Long nights waiting for me When she had hard times No shoulder to lean She couldn't believe somebody could write about lovers If they failed at love (yeah) Oh, when it came down on the two of us She says I couldn't open up She used to
She used to wanna hear every song I would write Now every melody is just enough To remind her of the time she doesn't spend with me I see the flag in her hand and it's white I guess she's gettin' tired of losin' (losin') The war against the music
She used to wanna hear every song I would write Now every melody is just enough To remind her of the time she doesn't spend with me I see the flag in her hand and it's white I guess she's gettin' tired of losin' (losin') The war against the music (She's at war, war, she's at war) The war against the music (She's at war, war, she's at war)
