Fighting For Me
Riley Clemmons Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

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 oh

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

In the perfect timing You make all things right
You paint a silver lining in this heart of mine

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 oh

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

Your love
Is winning me over
Your heart
Is pulling me closer
Your love
Is winning me over
Your heart
Is pulling me closer

You will never stop
Fighting for me, fighting for me
Every word is a promise You keep
Ooh, yeah

You will never stop fighting for me
When I can't fight for myself (when I can't)
Every word is a promise You keep (ooh)
'Cause You love me like nobody else
You stand up for me in the darkest night (You stand up for me in the dark)
When my faith is weak You're still by my side (yeah, yeah, my side)
You will never stop fighting for me
You will never stop fighting for me
