{Lyrics} 
 
Even though I'll never need her 
Even though she's only giving me pain 
I'll be on my knees to feed her 
Spend a day to make her smile again 
 
Even though I'll never need her 
Even though she's only giving me pain 
As the world is soft around her  
Leaving me with nothing to disdain 
 
Even though I'm not her minder 
Even though she doesn't want me around 
I am on my feet to find her 
To make sure that she is safe and sound 
 
Even though I'm not her minder 
Even though she doesn't want me around 
I am on my feet to find her 
To make sure that she is safe from harm 
 
The sun sets on the war 
The day breaks and everything is new 
 
The sun sets on the war 
The day breaks and everything is new 
 
everything is new... 
new... new... new... 
 
The sun sets on the war 
The day breaks and everything is new
