[Verse 1]
I could brace, I could brace hard
Brace my heart for the big cut
I don't want, I don't want to, my love
I just want you to stay

[Verse 2]
Tried to keep you in my dreams
Tried to barter with the kings
Tradin' secrets with the stars
But they won't listen, no one does
Tried to hold you with my heart
Laid it down to offer up
But there's no sayin' what's enough

[Chorus]
'Cause out here, it's a battlefield
No savior, no yield
Out here, it's a ragin' war
Is anyone countin' tears at all?
Out here, it's a battlefield
We can't always get what we want

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh
Oh
Oh, oh
[Bridge]
Wherе do we go from here?
Thе horse is on the run (Oh, oh)
Where do we go from here?
When the last sigh meets the sun (Oh, oh)
And when you brought me here
How can we be apart? (Oh, oh)

[Chorus]
Out here, it's a battlefield
No savior, no yield
Out here, it's a ragin' war
Is anyone countin' tears at all?
Out here, it's a battlefield
No savior, no yield
Out here, it's a ragin' war
Is anyone countin' tears at all?
Out here, it's a battlefield, ooh
Out here, it's a battlefield, ooh
Out here, it's a battlefield
We can't always get what we want

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh
Oh-oh
Oh
