A Battle Won

I drink coffee in the kitchen
As she slams the bedroom door
She had enough of me and she sure did let me know
The silence spoke out loud and clear
I heard a tear hit the floor from here
Oh, I can sure feel my stubborn ways
.
Oh, the things I do to prove I'm right
Break her heart just to watch her cry
Leave her stranded on an island all alone
I can't stand it when I'm wrong
But being right ain't worth the cost
Yeah, 'cause sometimes a battle won is a battle lost
.
You always tell me that you love me
With conviction in your eyes
You're my best friend, my biggest fan
And you're always on my side
And the more I sit here all alone
The more this sad disgrace runs through my bones
Cuts just deep enough to realize
.
Oh, the things I do to prove I'm right
Break her heart just to watch her cry
Leave her stranded on an island all alone
I can't stand it when I'm wrong
But being right ain't worth the cost
Yeah, 'cause sometimes a battle won is a battle lost
.
Nobody in the world ever really wants to lose
Yeah, and what's the point in winning if I can't win with you
.
Yeah, the things I do to prove I'm right
Break her heart just to watch her cry
Leave her stranded on an island all alone
I can't stand it when I'm wrong
But being right ain't worth the cost
Yeah, 'cause sometimes a battle won is a battle lost
Yeah, sometimes a battle won is a battle lost
Yeah, a battle lost
