Text: Chris Gaines. White Flag.

(Gordon Kennedy/Wayne Kirkpatrick)

I say black, you say white
I say day, you call it a night
What's wrong with this scene
What does this mean

You set me up, shoot me down
I'm wounded on this battleground
It's time, for sure, for ending this war
'cause my heart can't take anymore

Sendin' up, sendin' up, sendin' up a white flag
Love won't have a chance if all we do is just fight about it
Sendin' up, sendin up, sendin' up a white flag
Damn these circumstance
Love is headed for a fall
So before we lose it all, oh baby
I'm sendin' up a white flag


Place no blame, what's the use
Lay these weapons down and call a truce
Can't we (can't we) work it out (work it out)
'cause I love you baby, ain't no doubt
Isn't that what love's about

Sendin' up, sendin' up, sendin' up a white flag
Love won't have a chance if all we do is fight about it
Sendin' up, sendin' up, sendin' up a white flag
Damn these circumstance
Love is headed for a fall
So before we lose it all, oh baby
I'm sendin' up a white flag

I'm sendin' up a white flag
