Anthem '84

(Kris Kristofferson)

If you're looking for a fighter who'll defend you
And love you for your freedom I'm your man
And I ain't gonna leave you for the crazy things you're doin'
But don't ask me to lend a helping hand.

You were such a pretty dream as I remember
You were young and strong and God was on your side
But the vision slowly faded like the wonder from your eyes
You traded your compassion for your pride.

But I still believe in all that we believed in
And I pray to God that you will in the end
You'll see the golden chances that you're wasting
And be the loving beauty that you can.

But I still believe in all that we believed in
And I pray to God that you will in the end
You'll see the golden chances that you're wasting
And be the loving beauty that you can...
