Private Wars
 words and music by Carole Nelson

How can this love turn into hate?
You know me well you watch and wait
And sorry never comes too late
In all our private wars
In all our private wars.

Tonight the battle lines are clear
My only enemy is fear.
Could that be the cause my dear
Of all our private wars?
Of all our private wars?

Run for cover if you can
Its that crazy time again
When all good loving goes insane
Each one thinks that the others to blame
When all the time I know inside
The simple thing is to decide
Is Love alive for has love died?

All my defences are a game
A pitiful and wretched shame
Could it be you feel the same
In all our private wars?
In all our private wars?
