Here I go again, up against the wall
But if I don't give it everything I've got
Baby, it'll turn to nothing at all
I'll give it one more chance
Before I fade to black
I'm fightin' for my life, yeah I'm scared
But you know that I could never look back

You say I can't refuse
I've got nothing left to lose
But if you're asking me to choose

Chorus

I'm gonna stand up for love
Baby, once I'm in you know I play to win
Stand up for love
But it's all that I can do
I stand up for love

Verse II

What cuts you down, can it hurt so bad
It can break your faith and your soul
Like livin' in a world gone mad

When it comes back around
If your heart breaks down
You gotta hold your ground and you gotta...

Chorus II

Stand up for love
It's a chance I'll take, you know it's never too late to
Stand up for love
It's the best that I can do. You gotta stand up for love
Cause baby once you're in you gotta play to win
Stand up for love
Baby, I'll be good to you

Bridge

I think of the times when things were better, babe
Aah, I'm missing them
I never thought that they would end

(solo)

You know I can't refuse, I've got nothing left to lose
But if you're asking me to choose I'm gonna...

(repeat Chorus II)

I'll stand up for love
Stand up for love
