Army Of Two
The Dum Dums Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Look into these eyes of mine and take away my pain
Fall into my arms, tonight, let the world around us fade
The rain will fall, our hearts will break
But still I will be here beside you, right beside you...

When the world is against you
I will protect you
Darling we'll be an army of two
When your life's going wrong
Our love will be strong
Darling we'll be, an army of two

When the burdens of the world are on me
And people seem unkind
I just need to be beside you
You give me peace of mind
And when I fail to be everything
I tell you I will be
I know in your eyes I'll find
Forgiveness for me

The rain will fall, our hearts will break
But still I will be here beside you, right beside you...

When the world is against you
I will protect you
Darling we'll be an army of two
When your life's going wrong
Our love will be strong
Darling we'll be, an army of two

When the world is against you
I will protect you
Darling we'll be an army of two
When your life's going wrong
Our love will be strong
Darling we'll be, an army of two

Oh forgiveness and you give me completeness
In everything you do and I know when I'm lost in this desperate world, you're my refuge
I want to fall down at your feet
Walk beside you in the street, be proud that you
Are here with me, in front of everyone

When the world is against you
I will protect you
Darling we'll be an army of two
When your life's going wrong
Our love will be strong
Darling we'll be, an army of two

When the world is against you
I will protect you
Darling we'll be an army of two
When your life's going wrong




Our love will be strong
Darling we'll be, an army of two

The perfect swan song for the group who were sadly so short lived but made such a huge impact on me.

Great song. I've always loved it and I remember buying the single. It's a shame the Dum Dums didn't make more songs.
