Baby, we've been in and out of love so many times

We keep reaching the end of the line

And giving up on each other

And darling, I don't think we can survive one

more good-bye

Can't cry one more tear or lie one more lie

We got one last chance to make it

But that's all we need if we just take it



[Chorus:]

Baby, we gotta stand up for love

Gotta hold on

'Cause I know what we got is worth

fighting for

And I know for sure, right or wrong

This is where we belong

Baby, this time we gotta stand up for love

Stand together

Can't settle for less than forever

I know there's nothing we can't rise above

If we just stand up for love



Baby, after everything we put each other

through

And no matter what damage we do

We still need one another

And sometimes when I hold you in my arms

somehow I see

As bad as we've been that's how good we can be

But we can't just say we want it

Gotta lay all our tomorrows on it



[Chorus]



For all the dues we've paid

The magic we two have made

For all we've meant to one another

Once and for all we've gotta stand up

for each other



Baby, we gotta stand up for love

Gotta hold on

'Cause we know what we got is worth

fighting for

And we know for sure, right or wrong

Baby, this time we gotta stand up for love

Now or never

Can't settle for less than forever

I know there's nothing we can't rise above

If we just stand up for love
