(bill douglas/noah gordon/henry paul)

The word i've heard is you're a real heartbreaker
It's a matter of time 'til i get burned
Well that might be right
'cause when i'm holdin' you tight
I feel your temperature rise
I see right through your disguise
I found what i want and now i won't give up

I'm goin' down, i'm goin' down fightin'
Nobody's ever gonna say i took it on the chin
I've been around and i know what i'm up against
Girl we're not playin' a game that i can't win
I'm goin' down fightin'

Mistakes, bad breaks, a history of heartaches
Ain't enough to make me walk away
I'm here, no fear
And even though i know we're
On the edge of a real disaster
But i'm sure of what i'm after
The harder i fall the faster i get up

I'm goin' down, i'm goin' down fightin'
Nobody's ever gonna say i took it on the chin
I've been around and i know what i'm up against
Girl we're not playin' a game that i can't win
I'm goin' down fightin'

We're bound by this love that we made
I swear girl i'm not afraid
Whatever it takes i'm never gonna give you up

I'm goin' down, i'm goin' down fightin'
Nobody's ever gonna say i took it on the chin
I've been around and i know what i'm up against
Girl we're not playin' a game that i can't win
I'm goin' down fightin'
I'm goin' down fightin'
