We get something, we both know it
We don't talk too much about it
Ain't no real big secret, all the same
Somehow we get around it
Listen, it don't really matter to me, baby
You believe what you wanna believe, you see
You don't have to live like a refugee
(Don't have to live like a refugee).

Somewhere, somehow
Somebody must have kicked you around some
Tell me why you want to lay there, revel in your abandon
Honey, it don't make no difference to me, baby
Everybody's had to fight to be free, you see.

You don't have to live like a refugee
(Don't have to live like a refugee)
No baby, you don't have to live like a refugee
(Don't have to live like a refugee). 

Baby, we ain't the first
I'm sure a lot of other lovers been burned
Right now this seems real to you, but it's
One of those things you gotta feel to be true.

Somewhere, somehow
Somebody must have kicked you around some
Who knows maybe you were kidnappe
Tied up, taken away and held for ransom
Honey, it don't make no difference to me baby
Baby, everybody has to fight to be free, you see.

You don't have to live like a refugee
(Don't have to live like a refugee)
No, you don't have to live like a refugee
(Don't have to live like a refugee)
No, you don't have to live like a refugee
(Don't have to live like a refugee).
