You'd better mind your shieldnI've found my fighting rhythmnIf all's fair in love and war your heart will soon be minenYou'd best put up your armsnNo shame in sweet surrendernMy glory is ensured, it's just a matter of timennLife is much more lonely than I onced believednI'm no good for you, but you're so good for menThis battle rages on, the plunder is your heartnI love to be with you, you'd rather be apartnnSomeone once told me that ignorance is blissnI thought so for a time, but think of what I'd missnI want inside your brain, I just can't get enoughnYou wanna set me free, then chain me tie me upnnAnd I will strike just any chordnYour melodic minor heart calls fornThough Lord knows I'll do this in vain
