Lyrics

Trying to figure out just where your life is going Can you see the picture in the purple sky? Silently you're walking, but where are you heading? Questions terrorise, ah, yeah Space inside your mind, ah, yeah Are you strong enough for love? Are you strong enough for peace? Are you strong enough to die? Tell me why I'm strong enough for you Are you strong enough for me? 'Cause down, down in the city Love ain't always pretty They try to take your soul and mind But you won't let them Never wear your destiny, outside your smile Always talk in riddles, so you keep them guessing Never criticise, ah, yeah Keep an open mind, ah, yeah Are you strong enough for love? Are you strong enough for peace? Are you strong enough to die? Tell me why I'm strong enough for you Are you strong enough for me? 'Cause down, down in the city Love ain't always pretty They're holding their hands, begging for some time Can you spare a shilling, can you spare a life? You try to give them food, but they just refuse you Deep down inside, (deep, deep down) You know you've tried Oh,wait, are you strong enough for love Are you strong enough for peace? Strong enough to die Tell me why I'm strong enough for you Are you strong enough for me? 'Cause down, down in the city, (deep, deep down) Love ain't always pretty 'Cause are you strong enough, strong enough for me? Strong enough, strong enough to see Strong enough, strong enough to be 'Cause down, down in the city, yeah, yeah, yey Love ain't always pretty, always Strong enough for love Are you strong enough for peace Strong enough to die Tell me why Strong enough for me Oh, I'm strong enough for you 'Cause down,down in the city Love ain't always pretty No, oh Strong enough for me, (are you strong?) I'm strong enough for you, (baby you) Strong enough to see Down, down in the city, yeah, yeah, yeah, yey Love ain't so pretty, oh, no Yoohoo, ooh, ooh, hoo, hoo Yoo uh ooh hoo hoo Aw, aw, aw, aw, aw, aw, aw
