I Don't Wanna Fight – English Lyrics

Lyrics & Translation

[English]

There's a pale moon in the sky

The kind you make your wishes on

Oh, like the light in your eyes

The one I built my dreams upon

It's not there any longer

Something happened somewhere and we both know why

But me, I'm getting stronger

We must stop pretending, I can't live this life

I don't care who's wrong or right

I don't really wanna fight no more

(Too much talking, babe)

Let's sleep on it tonight

I don't really wanna fight no more

This is time for letting go

I hear a whisper in the air

It simply doesn't bother me

Oh, can't you see that I don't care

Or are you looking right through me?

It seems to me lately (it seems to me lately)

You look at me the wrong way and I start to cry

Could it be that maybe (could it be that maybe)

This crazy situation is the reason why? Oh

I don't care who's wrong or right

I don't really wanna fight no more

(Too much talking, babe)

Let's sleep on it tonight

I don't really wanna fight no more

Tired of all these games

Oh, baby, don't you know

That I don't wanna hurt no more?

(It's time, I'm walking, babe)

Don't care now who's to blame

I don't really wanna fight no more

This is time for letting go

Hanging on to the past

It only stands in our way

We had to grow for our love to last

But we just grew apart

Oh, don't wanna hurt no more

Oh, baby, don't you know?

No, I don't wanna hurt no more

(Too much talking, babe)

Don't care now who's to blame

I don't really wanna fight no more

(Tired of all these games)

I don't care who's wrong or right

I don't really wanna fight no more

(It's time, I'm walking, babe)

So let's sleep on it tonight

I don't really wanna fight no more

This is time for letting go

No, I don't wanna hurt no more

(Too much, hey baby)

Don't care now who's to blame

I don't really wanna fight no more

'Cause this is time for letting go

Let it go, let it go, let it go
