Love Will Rise Again
Loverboy Lyrics

You've been hurt and left for dead
You have experienced profound sadness and betrayal, feeling like you have lost everything and everyone in your life.

Shot from the saddle
You have been abruptly and without warning removed from a position of comfort, leaving you feeling vulnerable and without a sense of direction.

And your heart, it's been cut and bled
Your emotions have felt like they have been mutilated and bled out, leaving you in a state of emotional distress.

Run from the bottle
You have tried to escape or cope with your pain through self-harm or engaging in addictive behavior.

You've been shattered, battered, you've had it rough
You have been repeatedly beaten down and feel like you have no more emotional or physical strength left.

But never, ever, never give up
Despite all of the pain and hardships you have faced, it is important to never lose hope and to keep pushing forward.

Cause love will rise, love will rise
There is a powerful source of hope that exists and will emerge from your pain and hardships - love.

Love will rise again
Despite feeling like you have lost love or that it is impossible to find it again, love will ultimately resurface and take hold once more.

You've got to fight like a true survivor
The only way to rise again and move past your struggles is to fight with all of your strength and resilience to overcome them.

Up from the ashes
Despite feeling like you have been burned to the ground, you can emerge anew and find hope and love once more.

Believe me I know where you've been
The songwriter can empathize with and understand the depth of pain and struggle you have experienced.

I used to be one of the wounded
The songwriter has personally experienced the pain and devastation you are feeling.

There's something your heart can't defend
There is a vulnerability that exists within all of us that can be exploited, leading to pain and brokenness.

I'm back on my feet, I come back alive
Despite being hurt and knocked down, the songwriter ultimately found a way to overcome his struggles and find new life.

Stand up and fight, never say die
You must be strong, determined, and never give up, even in the face of seemingly insurmountable obstacles.

Yeah, yeah
A simple exclamation to emphasize the powerful message of the song - that despite pain and struggle, hope and love will ultimately triumph.
