Here I go again, up against the wall

But if I don't give it everything I've got

Baby, it'll turn to nothing at all

I'll give it one more chance

Before I fade to black

I'm fightin' for my life, yeah I'm scared

But you know that I could never look back

You say I can't refuse

I've got nothing left to lose

But if you're asking me to choose

Chorus

I'm gonna stand up for love

Baby, once I'm in you know I play to win

Stand up for love

But it's all that I can do

I stand up for love

Verse II

What cuts you down, can it hurt so bad

It can break your faith and your soul

Like livin' in a world gone mad

When it comes back around

If your heart breaks down

You gotta hold your ground and you gotta...

Chorus II

Stand up for love

It's a chance I'll take, you know it's never too late to

Stand up for love

It's the best that I can do. You gotta stand up for love

Cause baby once you're in you gotta play to win

Stand up for love

Baby, I'll be good to you

Bridge

I think of the times when things were better, babe

Aah, I'm missing them

I never thought that they would end

(solo)

You know I can't refuse, I've got nothing left to lose

But if you're asking me to choose I'm gonna...

(repeat Chorus II)

I'll stand up for love

Stand up for love
