Dawn breaks on the battlefield while the morning mist lays heavy on the ground
And the silence is like thunder as the enemy prepares another round
In her soft satin armor lying on the far side of the bed
Wounded and heartbroken and scarred by the killing words I said
I have no rules in battle so I fire the guns of anger once again
Oh she's such a little thing and there's no doubt about it I can win
But with teardrops as her weapons she easily destroys my battle plans
And then shamefully retreating I smile at her and then she takes command
And oh what a sweet surrender
I'm captured by two lips so warm and tender
She completely surrounds me with her loving arms again
It was love that brought the battle to an end
Now the enemies are lovers once again
