Lyrics

Bows And Arrows

[Verse 1]

Hold onto your hearts, if you can!

It's been the coldest year since records began

And now the sun is coming up again in no man's land

[Pre-Chorus]

So let's go, into tomorrow

Together fighting

We're bows and arrows!

[Chorus]

You and me on the front line

You and me, every time

It's always you and me, we're bows and arrows

You!

[Verse 2]

Well I'm not waiting for no one, I'm waiting for you!

Well I'm not waiting for no one, I'm waiting for you!

It takes the two of us together if we'll make it through!

[Pre-Chorus]

So let's go, into tomorrow

Together fighting

We're bows and arrows!

[Chorus]

You and me on the front line

You and me, every time

It's always you and me, we're bows and arrows

You!

You and me when the sun goes down

It's always you and me when the whip comes round

It's always you and me, we're bows and arrows

You!

[Bridge]

We the people, created equal

We the people, created equal

We the people, created equal

We the people, created equal

We the people, created equal

We the people, created equal

We the people, created equal

We the people, created equal

We the people, created equal

And if that's true then we're not the only ones

And if that's true then we're not the only ones

And if that's true then we're not the only ones

And if that's true then we're not the only ones

[Chorus]

You and me on the front line

You and me, every time

It's always you and me, we're bows and arrows

You!

You and me when the sun goes down

It's always you and me when the whip comes round

It's always you and me, we're bows and arrows

You!
