War Lyrics


Alesha Dixon War

[Verse 1]
I just needed a minute
I just needed some breathing space
I just needed a moment to get my head straight
I've been feeling it all and I just wanted to let it out
All I need is a moment before I breakdown

[Pre-Chorus]
Once upon a time this would pull me under
But I know, I know these feeling come and go
'Cause once upon a time the fear would have won
But now I know, I know, I can do this on my own

[Chorus]
It burns, it burns, but it keeps me warm
I've been here before, I know what I'm doing
It burns, it burns, but it keeps me warm
I've been here before, I know how to win this war

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
I've been here before, I know how to win this war

[Verse 2]
All I need is some time, you know I wrote the book on surviving
And I'll never stop fighting, but needed reminded
Taking so many bullets, the holes are just letting the light in
Keep letting the light in, I won't breakdown
[Pre-Chorus]
Once upon a time this would pull me under
But I know, I know these feeling come and go
'Cause once upon a time the fear would have won
But now I know, I know, I can do this on my own

[Chorus]
It burns, it burns, but it keeps me warm
I've been here before, I know what I'm doing
It burns, it burns, but it keeps me warm
I've been here before, I know how to win this war

[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
I've been here before, I know how to win this war
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh
I've been here before, I know how to win this war

[Bridge]
Once upon a time this would have pull me under
And it makes me wonder if I walked away
Standing in the mirror would I still see someone I can rely on
Stronger because of yesterday

[Chorus]
It burns, it burns, but it keeps me warm
I've been here before, I know what I'm doing
It burns, it burns, but it keeps me warm
I've been here before, I know how to win this war
[Post-Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh (I know how to win this, I said I know how to win this war)
I've been here before, I know how to win this war
Oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh (I said I know how to win this war)
I've been here before, I know how to win this war

[Outro]
(Know how to win this war, I said, "War")
(I know how to win this war)
(Win this war)
(Know how to win this war, I said, "War")
(I know how to win this war)
