Kris Kristofferson
Anthem ’84
If you're lookin' for a fighter who'll defend you
And love you for your freedom. I'm your man
I ain't gonna leave you for the crazy things you're doin'
But don't ask me to lend a helpin' 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
And you'll see the golden chances that you're wastin'
And be the lovin' beauty that you can

[Instrumental break.]

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

Be the lovin' beauty that you can
