Our love shouldn't be a mountain

Our love shouldn't be a mountain 
That we have to climb every day 
Our love shouldn't be a battlefield 
Where egos have their way

Our love shouldn't be an ocean 
That we have to swim across 
Our love shouldn't be a game
Where we compete for wins and losses

I have given everything 
Everything and more, my dear
I have been here for you each day 
Cheering you on; calming fears

I will always love you, darling 
With everything that I am 
No matter what the future holds
You'll always be in my plans

Our love shouldn't be a mountain 
That we have to climb every day 
Our love shouldn't be a battlefield 
Where egos have their way

Our love shouldn't be an ocean 
That we have to swim across 
Our love shouldn't be a game
Where we compete for wins and losses

But I know my hopes and dreams 
May not be the same as yours
Maybe you're thinking about a change 
Exploring distant shores 

Something inside me knows 
Something's got to give
Love can't conquer every demon
It's not the way to love or live

Our love shouldn't be a mountain 
That we have to climb every day 
Our love shouldn't be a battlefield 
Where egos have their way

Our love shouldn't be an ocean 
That we have to swim across 
Our love shouldn't be a game
Where we compete for wins and losses

Our love shouldn't be a mountain 
That we have to climb every day 
Our love shouldn't be a battlefield 
Where egos have their way

Our love shouldn't be an ocean 
That we have to swim across 
Our love shouldn't be a game
Where we compete for wins and losses
