I need the kinda love that Can outlast the night I need the kinda love that Is willing to fight... When the going gets tough And my strength's not enough I see you showing up like never before This battle for my heart You took on from the start You are the peace when my mind's at war And o-ohh You will never stop fighting for me When I can't fight for myself Every word is a promise you keep 'Cause you love me like nobody else You stand up for me In the darkest night When my faith is weak You're still by my side You will never stop fighting for me You will never stop fighting for me
