Would You Fight for My Love?
Jack White Lyrics

It's not enough that I love you
My love alone isn't sufficient, I have to demonstrate it to you as well.

There's all these things I have to prove to you
I have a lot of ground to cover to show you how much I love you.

You use the sun to erase the past
You try to move on from the past by looking towards a better future.

But you think it only erases for you
You feel like you're the only one who can leave the past behind by looking forward.

Well I'm afraid of being hurt that's true
I do fear getting hurt in a relationship.

But I'm not afraid of any physical pain
I'm not scared of any physical discomfort or hurt.

Just as I am always scared of water
Similar to how I fear water, but not the rain, I fear some things and not others.

But not afraid of standing out in the rain
However, I don't fear standing out in the rain.

The last bosom in the room she hugged
The last person she embraced was the one she loved the most.

Was the bosom that the loved the most
She hugged the individual she cherished the most.

Nobody noticed I was down on the rug
No one took note of my presence as I was laying down on the rug.

I'm getting better at becoming a ghost
I'm getting more adept at becoming invisible to others.

I know that you want more
I understand you want more in our relationship.

But would you fight for my love?
I wonder if you're willing to work hard to keep our love alive.

In the heart that you bid for
In the place you're trying to win over.

But can you ignore my love?
But are you capable of turning away from my affection?

No walking out my back door
I don't want you to leave by sneaking out the back door.

Looking back for my love
I want you to look back for my love, to value it even when we're apart.

People do their best to not let passion begin
Most people try to suppress their passion or feelings from blossoming.

If stepping forward has a chance to start
If taking a step forward may lead to new experience or love.

If so then I am the caretaker of sins
If that's the case, I will take on the responsibility of our wrongdoings in the relationship.

And you're a bandit in my malignant heart
You are the one breaking into my heart to steal something precious.

It's such a blessing to sing with you together
It's a privilege to make music with you.

Making love when there is nobody home
Being intimate without anyone else around us.

But I can't get you till you lift up your chin
I can't connect with you until you look up from your own thoughts.

You have to want to start being alone
You need to be comfortable with spending time alone to become closer with yourself and eventually others.

I want you to fight for my love
I desire you to work hard to keep our love alive.
