Por Amor
Tommy Torres
For Love
Right in the middle of the action,
under a downpour of sweat
A good man saw the miracle of life
They say he passed out,
it was too much for his heart
To hear the first cry of his daughter
who was born there... for love
Far away somewhere,
under the glow of a big city,
A girl suffers from a broken heart
She loves him endlessly.
It's been a while since he felt the same.
There's no choice but to cry
and forget...
For love roses bloom in the sand
For love we forgive offenses
Some come and some go
Some laugh and some cry the same, For love
Right in the middle of the action,
under a downpour of explosions
A good man fights to save his life
Today he turned twenty-one
And has spent the last two
Fighting in a war that's not his
Wondering why this madness
There's no choice but to endure
and shoot...
For love crosses are nailed in the sand
For love for love of a flag
Some come and some go
Some are born and some die the same.
So much has been written about love
More than our muse, it's our excuse
Sometimes it's praised
and if convenient, it's blamed
For love roses bloom in the sand
For love we forgive offenses
Some come and some go
Some laugh and some cry the same, For love
