Fight for Love Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You're original
No matter what you're sold
Oh, you, oh, you
You've got a lot to brave
You'll always find a way
It's true, it's true

[Pre-Chorus]
Fighting from different sides
Trying to save it tonight, ooo, oh ooo
So open up the scars
And let the healing start for you, for you
A sea of broken hearts, scars
Maybe now it's time to embrace the dark
Love us and walk the way we're talking

[Chorus]
Now I think it is time for us
We're ready to fight, no gloves
They might drag us out in cuffs
But we're standing up
Yeah, we're standing up
For love, for love
Oh, this time we'll fight for love
Fight for love, for love
Oh, this time we'll fight for love, fight for love

[Verse 2]
Been battling our fears
Been holding back our tears to get through, get through
But next to you, I'm stronger
I cover up no longer, let loose, let loose

[Pre-Chorus]
Fighting from different sides
Trying to save it tonight, ooo, oh ooo
So open up the scars
And let the healing start for you, for you
A sea of broken hearts, scars
Maybe now it's time to embrace the dark
Love us and walk the way we're talking

[Chorus]
Now I think it is time for us
We're ready to fight, no gloves
They might drag us out in cuffs
But we're standing up
Yeah, we're standing up
For love, for love
Oh, this time we'll fight for love
Fight for love, for love
Oh, this time we'll fight for love, fight for love

Courtney Act is one of the semi-finalists of Australian Idol in 2003. However, she is only the third singer of the competition to release an official/solo single, following Guy Sebastian and Shannon Noll. This single is “Rub Me Wrong” and was released in 2004, peaking at #29 in the ARIAnet Singles Chart.

Courtney Act (a play on the phrase “caught in the act”) is actually the nom de guerre of “gender illusionist” Shane Jenek. Shane auditioned for Australian Idol as himself but did not get beyond the selection auditions. Returning the next day as Courtney, he wowed the judges and went through to the semifinals. Revealing impressive voice and singing talents as well as a stage presence considerably ahead of many of the other contestants, he/she continued until being finally voted off in thirteenth place. Courtney particularly impressed judge Ian “Dicko” Dickson, who signed Jenek to the BMG label following the completion of the show.

Act gained popularity in America when she competed in the sixth season of reality TV show RuPaul's Drag Race, in which she was a runner-up, alongside Adore Delano.

Shane Jenek is a native of Brisbane but now lives in Sydney. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
