Winning the War
Resilience Unveiled: Triumph Amidst Trials in Patrick Jordan's Winning the War
Lyrics
I put us through a lot this year
I have put our relationship through significant challenges this year.
And I couldn't ask for more
I am content with what I have and don't desire more.
And after all you've given me
Despite the difficulties, considering all you've given me, I commit to being yours forever.
I'll be forever yours
Expressing enduring commitment to the other person.
Well I might not have much more to give
While I may not have much more to offer, whatever I have is at your disposal.
But what I've got is yours
Reiterating the willingness to share and give.
We might have lost the battle
Acknowledging past difficulties, possibly in the relationship, as a lost battle.
But we're still winning the war
Despite setbacks, the relationship is still progressing positively.
I learned to leave the past behind
Learning to leave behind past issues and closing the door on them.
And I bolted shut the door
Committing to moving forward and not dwelling on past mistakes.
They've thrown all they have at us
Enduring challenges thrown at the relationship.
And who knows what's left in store
Uncertainty about future challenges, keeping an eye on what lies ahead.
So I clung to little victories
Adhering to small victories, but realizing they are no longer necessary.
But I don't need them anymore
Expressing personal growth and independence.
We might have lost the battle
Despite past losses, emphasizing the ongoing success of the relationship.
But we're still winning the war
Reaffirmation that the relationship is thriving despite setbacks.
Just look at all we've been through
Reflecting on shared experiences and challenges faced together.
And all that's gone before
Considering the history and obstacles overcome.
And all the doubting voices
Noting the presence of doubting voices and external skepticism.
They get harder to ignore
Acknowledging the increasing difficulty of ignoring external negativity.
But what's the sense in caring
Questioning the value of caring about external opinions when it doesn't affect the relationship.
When it won't even up the score
Realizing that caring about external opinions won't change the relationship dynamics.
We might have lost the battle
Despite setbacks, emphasizing the ongoing success of the relationship.
But we're still winning the war
Reaffirmation that the relationship is thriving despite setbacks.
Just look at all we've been through
Repeating the reflection on shared experiences and challenges faced together.
And all that's gone before
Reiterating the consideration of the history and obstacles overcome.
And all the shouting voices
Noting the presence of shouting voices and external negativity.
They get harder to ignore
Acknowledging the increasing difficulty of ignoring external negativity.
But what's the sense in caring
Questioning the value of caring about external opinions when it doesn't affect the relationship.
When it won't even up the score
Realizing that caring about external opinions won't change the relationship dynamics.
We might have lost the battle
Despite setbacks, emphasizing the ongoing success of the relationship.
But we're still winning the war
Reaffirmation that the relationship is thriving despite setbacks.
We might have lost some battles
Acknowledging losses in specific battles within the relationship.
But we're still winning the war
Emphasizing the overall success and resilience of the relationship in the larger context of the "war."
