Summer burns, June to July
And we undress and take the dive
No one holds the hands that hold themselves
Remember who we are today
When sun-burnt souvenirs have faded
We collect the moments on a shelf
And it's all right if you feel like crying
But I won't leave you alone, oh
'Cause nothing in this world worth fighting for
Is easy I thought you should know, oh
Winter stirs the stars to life
And we still burn from autumn fires
Laughing even in our discontent
And on until the lion fades
And April wears a brand new face
Own the moments life is not for rent
And it's all right if you feel like crying
But I won't leave you alone, oh
'Cause nothing in this world worth fighting for
Is easy I thought you should know, oh
Finish what you say, don't throw it all away
There is no way I can save us both anymore
Still I'm on my way
(A hero saves the day)
So open up your eyes and open up your door
You're worth fighting for
And it's alright if you can't stop smiling
'Cause I know just how you feel, oh
You're the one thing in this world worth fighting for
I need you now more than you know, oh
Remember who we are today
In 20 years when the pictures fade
'Cause you can't rest a good life on the shelf
