Lyrics In Fighting - Maddy Prior

In Fighting

I know you can take care of yourself
He said as he slugged her on the chin
No I can’t, she screamed at him
As she kicked him in the shin
Plates were flying everywhere
Cruel words fouled the air
The neighbours heard every word
But they were too far gone to care
In fighting, in fighting
Starting a relationship at the end of an affair
In fighting, in fighting
Ruthless when you should be taking care
After hours of loving togtherness
The strain was finally flt
The teapot hit his forehead
But the insults went below the belt
Not the crystal she pleaded
Anything but the cut glass
But it only proved incentive
And it hit the wall an impressive crash
In fighting, in fighting
Starting a relationship at the end of an affair
In fighting, in fighting
Ruthless when you should be taking care
He tore her best friends apart
She tore his best clothes
He bruised her delicate ego
And she bruised his elegant nose
In fighting, in fighting
Starting a relationship at the end of an affair
In fighting, in fighting
Ruthless when you should be taking care
But as the day was dawning
And all the words were finally said
They shrugged in confusion
And fell exhausted back on the bed
In fighting, in fighting
Starting a relationship at the end of an affair
In fighting, in fighting
Ruthless when you should be taking care
