What you're gonna do when your love is gone
Who you're gonna play when the game has ended
Where you're gonna go when the bird has flown
How you're gonna play when you're all alone

Keep the fighting spirit of love
Keep the fighting spirit of love

What you're gonna do when you're on your own
What you're gonna have when you've got no place to call your own
What you're gonna try when your cover's blown
How you're gonna fly when your wings are broken

Keep the fighting spirit of love
Keep the fighting spirit of love
Keep the fighting spirit of love

Don't let it get you down
Keep the fighting spirit and turn your head around
Don't let it take you in
Keep the fighting spirit and you'll begin again

Keep the fighting spirit of love
Keep the fighting spirit of love
Keep the fighting spirit of love
Keep the fighting spirit of love

This song was included as a bonus track on the limited edition of COADF. It's a great addition and fits in with the album both thematically and musically. Lyrically it speaks to the power of love and how it can get you through the darkest of times. I like how the verses that speak to the bad times are sung in her lower tone with a more sinister delivery in contrast to the positive chorus which is in her higher register and is much happier and uplifting in tone. My favorite of the bonus tracks/demos from this era.

Favorite Lyric:Where you gonna go when the bird has flown

Favorite Musical Part: The bells

Favorite Vocal Part : The bridge

One Word That Sums Up This Song : Perserverence

I preferred Super Pop than this before in the COADF Booklet CD Edition :lol:

But in the past few months, I've been digging this and I realized it's so underrated. I like the message of the song and it's like a partner to Push. Though I'm confused too with the lyrics alive vs. love.
