Fighter - David Nail
Don't think that I don't see the way you struggle
Watching me struggle
Don't think that I don't feel you turn away
Every time I turn away
Please believe that I believe
When I'm praying that you're right beside me praying
For the same thing
You're 53
Born in Carolina
Front pew pretty
Friday night free
You're a dashboard singing
Little red corvette
Sweet as forgiveness
From the moment that we met
I never knew I had a fighter
I know when your silence sigh says more than a scream
I know that when you say that you hate me
It ain't what you mean
When you say that you're leavin'
You're leaving but only for a while
For just a while
You're stubborn
And strong
Crazy as New Orleans
Your faded blue denim
A diamond on the town
My t shirt in the morning
Midnight in my hands
Now you're still here
I just don't understand
I never knew I have a fighter
Just when I thought I knew everything about you
You're 53
Born in Carolina
Still front pew pretty
And Friday night free
You're a dashboard singing
Little red corvette
Sweet as forgiveness
From the moment that we met
Never knew I had a fighter
Never knew I had a fighter
Please believe that I believe
When I'm praying that you're right beside me praying
Never knew I had a fighter
