A warrior who's never fought
A light that's never had a chance to shine
A writer who has never thought
A baby girl who's never whined

A fire that has never burned
A chord that's never been put in a song
A skin that never has been touched
A kiss that didn't last too long

Now I'm getting ready for the fight
I'm looking for a chance to make this right
Running, I'm learning, I'm leaving this time
Now I'm getting ready for the fight
I'm looking for a chance to make this right
Running, I'm learning, I'm leaving tonight

The morning sun that's not so bright
The bird that never has made the first flight
The dress that was never worn
The key that never opened any door

The movie that was never seen
The wall that never stopped someone from getting in
The book that was never read
"I love you" that has never been said

Now I'm getting ready for the fight
I'm looking for a chance to make this right
Running, I'm learning, I'm leaving this time
Now I'm getting ready for the fight
I'm looking for a chance to make this right
Running, I'm learning, I'm leaving tonight

Tonight
Tonight
Tonight
Tonight

Now I'm getting ready for the fight
I'm looking for a chance to make this right
Running, I'm learning, I'm leaving this time
Now I'm getting ready for the fight
I'm looking for a chance to make this right
Running, I'm learning, I'm leaving tonight

The warrior has won the war
He never thought he would get this far
The writer wrote the perfect score
The baby girl became a star
