No Surrender — текст песни (Bruce Springsteen)

Well, we bursted out of class
Had to get away from those fools
We learned more from a 3-minute record, baby
Than we ever learned in school
Tonight I hear the neighborhood drummer sound
I can feel my heart begin to pound
You say you`re tired and you just want to close your eyes
And follow your dreams down

Chorus:
Well, we made a promise we swore we`d always remember
No retreat, baby, no surrender
Like soldiers in the winter`s night
With a vow to defend
No retreat, baby, no surrender

Well, now young faces grow sad and old
And hearts of fire grow cold
We swore blood brothers against the wind
Now I`m ready to grow young again
And hear your sister`s voice calling us home
Across the open yards
Well maybe we`ll cut someplace of own
With these drums and these guitars

`Cause we made a promise we swore we`d always remember
No retreat, baby, no surrender
Blood brothers in the stormy night
With a vow to defend
No retreat, baby, no surrender

Now on the street tonight the lights grow dim
The walls of my room are closing in
There`s a war outside still raging
You say it ain`t ours anymore to win
I want to sleep beneath
Peaceful skies in my lover`s bed
With a wide open country in my eyes
And these romantic dreams in my head

Once we made a promise we swore we`d always remember
No retreat, baby, no surrender
Blood brothers in a stormy night
With a vow to defend
No retreat, baby, no surrender

Ohhhhh Ohhhhh Ohhhhh
Ohhhhh Ohhhhh Ohhhhh
Ohhhhh Ohhhhh Ohhhhh
Ohhhhh Ohhhhh Ohhhhh
