Tough Love Lyrics

You got tough love on your side

And your eyes are open wide

A rebel with a cause

Where the sound tracks sirens

And wrapped around the well heart you hold

The mean streets won't catch you cold

Another story in the naked city

You got the cure

Where there's no pity

Well it's a soldier's battle zone

Take aim to prove you're not alone

No prisoners, no fugitives

And you're face to face with victory

Hearts like a world you come to say

The kamikaze pilot crashes

As a phoenix rises from the ashes

CHORUS:

Tough love, you're hard to beat

You're worth the fight

It hits you where it hurts

Oh are you tough enough, tough enough

Tough love, you're hard to beat

You're worth the fight

Soul surrender to your heart

You're tough enough, tough enough

Take it up against the ropes

I've been there where you hold your hopes

Where the fires of passion

       burns the waiting heart

We can break the red tape hustle

Now that's my kind of muscle

The stamina to end the runnin'

The armor when the night comes gunnin'

To steal your eyes with blind ambition

Beat you down with competition

You got tough love on your side

When your eyes see red

And on dead-end streets

And hunger feeds the heart that beats

My one-to-one drum

Clears my way

CHORUS
