Patty Smyth - Tough Love Lyrics
You got tough love on your side And your eyes are open wide A rebel with a cause Where the sound tracks sirens And wrapped around the well heart you hold The mean streets won't catch you cold Another story in the ***** city You got the cure Where there's no pity Well it's a soldier's battle zone Take aim to prove you're not alone No prisoners, no fugitives And you're face to face with victory Hearts like a world you come to say The kamikaze pilot crashes As a phoenix rises from the ashes CHORUS: Tough love, you're hard to beat You're worth the fight It hits you where it hurts Oh are you tough enough, tough enough Tough love, you're hard to beat You're worth the fight Soul surrender to your heart You're tough enough, tough enough Take it up against the ropes I've been there where you hold your hopes Where the fires of passion burns the waiting heart We can break the red tape hustle Now that's my kind of muscle The stamina to end the runnin' The armor when the night comes gunnin' To steal your eyes with blind ambition Beat you down with competition You got tough love on your side When your eyes see red And on dead-end streets And hunger feeds the heart that beats My one-to-one drum Clears my way CHORUS
