he sees it often since you've been away
there is a wound, who'll staunch it up
love knows he argues with hemself in pain
he means to do no mischief but he would
and that's the question
to you or not to you
all the same direction
the baby in blue

we're the warriors,
the warriors of love

he loved a certain person, yes he did
and his love was not returned
yet out of that there was one thing he did
yet out of that he wrote his songs
and that's the question
to you or not to you
all the same direction
the baby in blue

come take my hand and do splendid work
if not for you i would rather get drunk
and make love with the man in the street
come ring my voice, make me sing
when the night makes a move
to the morning light ease me a little,
a little ease, my song
