EmWe can fight our deCsires,
ooooo-A5ooooo,

EmWe get ever so Chot,

whether we like it or Emnot.
EmThey say we can love who we Ctrust,
ooooo-A5ooooo,
but what is love without Emlust?
EmTwo hearts with accurate dCevotions,
ooooo-A5ooooo,
what are feelings without emoEmtions?
[Chorus]
GI'm Going in for the Ckill,
I'm doing it for a thCrill,
oh I'm hoping you'll underDstand,
and now let go of my Emhand.

EmI hang my hopes out on Cthe line,
ooooo-A5ooooo,
will they be ready for you in Emtime?
EmIf you leave them out too Clong,
ooooo-A5ooooo,
they'll be withered by the Emsun.
EmFull-stops and exclamaCtion-marks,
ooooo-A5ooooo
my words stumble before I Emstart.
EmHow far can you send emoCtions?
ooooo-A5ooooo
Can this bridge cross the Emocean?
[Chorus]
GI'm Going in for the Ckill,
I'm doing it for a thCrill,
oh I'm hoping you'll underDstand,
and now let go of my Emhand.

GLets go to war to make Dpeace,
CLets be cold to create Emheat.
GI hope in darkness we can Dsee,
CAnd you're not blinded by the light from Emme.
