Lyrics
Music composed by Joe Williams Lyrics by Andy LeFevre Vocals by Linda Moore. Common Ground I've won a battle, but I'm losing a war The shots that you fire, I can't take any more It's not bombs or bullets that I fear Cold eyes are killing me when you're near And it wouldn't take much to make my day A touch or a smile goes a long long way I feel so lonely when you're not around Why can't we find some common ground? This pain I've hidden, burns deeper with time The taste of my tears, is the bitterest wine When your 'phone is busy can't bear the sound Oh where's the lover I thought I'd found And it wouldn't take much to make my day A touch or a smile goes a long long way I feel so lonely when you're not around Why can't we find some common ground? You say I've changed, but I've loved you from the start I'd change my whole life, to recapture your heart And it wouldn't take much to make my day A touch or a smile goes a long long way I feel so lonely when you're not around Why can't we find some common ground? [guitar solo] And it wouldn't take much to make my day A touch or a smile goes a long long way I feel so lonely when you're not around Why can't we find some common ground? And it wouldn't take much to make my day A touch or a smile goes a long long way I feel so lonely when you're not around Why can't we find some common ground?
