Cheryl Cole - Fight For This Love - Official Video & Lyrics

Cheryl Cole’s first solo single Fight For This Love is claiming to be the biggest selling single of the year hoping to reach the number one spot and topple Alexandra Burke’s number one hit Bad Boys.  Cheryl Cole from Grils Aloud has become a UK celebrity from her appearance in the top TV Show X-Factor and was also the mentor for Alexandra Burke’s win on the same show last year.

Lyrics for Fight For This Love by Cheryl Cole

Too much of anything can make you sink
Even the good can be a curse
Makes it hard to know which road to go down
Knowing too much can get you hurt

Is it better is it worse?
Always sitting in reverse
Just like we’re going backwards (backwards)
I know where I want this to go
Driving fast but let’s go slow
What I don’t wanna do is crash, no

Just know that you’re not in this thing alone
There’s always a place in me that you can call home
Whenever you feel like we’re growing apart
Let’s just go back back back back back to the start, oh

Anything that’s worth having
Is sure enough worth fighting for
Quittings out of the question
When it gets tough gotta fight some more

We gotta fight fight fight fight fight for this love
We gotta fight fight fight fight fight for this love
We gotta fight fight fight fight fight for this love
If it’s worth having it’s worth fighting for

Now everyday ain’t gon’ be no picnic
Love ain’t no walk in the park
All you can do is make the best of it now
Can’t be afraid of the dark

Just know that you’re not in this thing alone
There’s always a place in me that you can call home
Whenever you feel like we’re growing apart
Let’s just go back back back back back to the start, oh

Anything that’s worth having
Is sure enough worth fighting for
Quittings out of the question
When it gets tough gotta fight some more

We gotta fight fight fight fight fight for this love
We gotta fight fight fight fight fight for this love
We gotta fight fight fight fight fight for this love
If it’s worth having it’s worth fighting for

I don’t know where we’re heading I’m willing and ready to go
We’ve been driving so fast we just need to slow down and just roll

Anything that’s worth having
Is sure enough worth fighting for
Quittings out of the question
When it gets tough gotta fight some more

We gotta fight fight fight fight fight for this love
We gotta fight fight fight fight fight for this love
We gotta fight fight fight fight fight for this love
If it’s worth having it’s worth fighting for

We gotta fight fight fight fight fight for this love
We gotta fight fight fight fight fight for this love
We gotta fight fight fight fight fight for this love
If it’s worth having it’s worth fighting for

Bad Boys by ALexandra Burke

[Flo Rida]
Flo Rida
Alexandra girl, i know what you like.

[Alexandra]
Some people call them players but I’m far from terrified
Somehow I’m drawn to danger and have been all my life
It feels my heart’s divided halfway between wrong and right
I know I’m playin with fire but I don’t mind

[Chorus]
Yeah, the bad boys are always catching my eye,
I said the bad boys are always spinning in my mind,
Even though I know they’re no good for me it’s the risk I take for the chemistry,
With the bad boys always catching my eye

Ooooah

[Alexandra]
Some think it’s complicated
But it’s straight upfront for me
I don’t need no explanations
It’s nothing more that what you see here
My heart still feels divided halfway between wrong and right
I know I’m playin with fire but I don’t mind

[Chorus]

[Flo Rida]
….

[Chorus]
Yeah, the bad boys are always catching my eye,
I said the bad boys are always spinning in my mind,
Even though I know they’re no good for me it’s the risk I take for the chemistry,
With the bad boys always catching my eye

Yeah, the bad boys are always spinning in my mind
I said the bad boys are always catching my eye

And if it makes you feel good then I say do it,

Feel my temperature rising
Theres too much heat Im gonna lose control
Do you want to go higher, get closer to the fire,
I dont know what youre waiting for

Come join the party, yeah
Coz anybody just wont do.
Lets get this started, yeah
Coz everybody wants to party with you.

Boy you got a reputation, but youre gonna have to prove it
I see a little hesitation,
Am I gonna have to show you that if it feels right, get on your marks
Step to the beat boy thats what its for

Put your arms around me
When it gets too hot we can go outside
But for now just come here, let me whisper in your ear
An invitation to the dance of life

Come join the party, its a celebration
Anybody just wont do
Lets get this started, no more hesitation
Coz everybody wants to party with you

Havent I seen you somewhere before?
You look familiar
You wanna dance? Yeah.
I guess I just dont recognize you with your clothes on (laughs)
What are you waiting for?

Boy youve got it
Coz anybody just wont do
Lets get it started, no more hesitation
Coz everybody wants to party with you

Ay, Ay, Ay
Nobody likes being played
Beyonce, Beyonce
Shakira, Shakira (hey)

[Beyonce] He said I’m worth it, his one desire
[Shakira] I know things about him that you wouldn’t wanna read about
[Beyonce] He kissed me, his one and only, (yes) beautiful liar
[Shakira] Tell me how you tolerate the things that you just found out about

[Shakira] You never know
[Beyonce] Why are we the ones who suffer
[Shakira] I have to let go
[Beyonce] He won’t be the one to cry

[Beyonce] (Ay) Let’s not kill the karma
(Ay) Let’s not start a fight
(Ay) It’s not worth the drama
For a beautiful liar
[Shakira] (Oh)Can’t we laugh about it(ha ha ha)
(Oh) It’s not worth our time
(Oh) We can live without him
Just a beautiful liar

[Shakira] I trusted him, but when I followed you, I saw you together
[Beyonce] I didn’t know about you then ’til I saw you with him again
[Shakira] I walked in on your love scene, slow dancing
[Beyonce] You stole everything, how can you say I did you wrong?

[Shakira] You never know
[Beyonce] When the pain and heartbreak’s over
[Shakira] I have to let go
[Beyonce] The innocence is gone

[Beyonce] (Ay) Let’s not kill the karma
(Ay) Let’s not start a fight
(Ay) It’s not worth the drama
For a beautiful liar
[Shakira] (Oh) Can’t we laugh about it(ha ha ha)
(Oh) It’s not worth our time
(Oh) We can live without him
Just a beautiful liar

[Shakira] Tell me how to forgive you
When it’s me who’s ashamed
[Beyonce] And I wish could free you
Of the hurt and the pain
(Both) But the answer is simple
He’s the one to blame
[Ay] Beyonce, Beyonce
[Ay] Shakira, Shakira
[Ay] Beyonce, Beyonce
[Ay] Shakira, Shakira
Hey!

[Beyonce] (Ay) Let’s not kill the karma
(Ay) Let’s not start a fight
(Ay) It’s not worth the drama
For a beautiful liar
[Shakira] (Oh) Can’t we laugh about it(ha ha ha)
(Oh) It’s not worth our time
(Oh) We can live without him
Just a beautiful liar

Lyrics for My Hips Don’t Lie by Shakira

Ladies up in here tonight
no fighting, no fighting
We got the refugees up in here
No fighting, no fighting

Shakira, Shakira

I Never really knew that she could dance like this
She makes a man want to speak Spanish
Como si llama, bonita, mi casa, su casa

Shakira, Shakira

Oh baby when you talk like that
You make a woman go mad
So be wise and keep on
Reading the signs of my body

and I’m on tonight
You know my hips don’t lie
And I’m starting to feel it’s right
all the attraction, the tention
Don’t you see baby, this is perfection

Hey Girl, I can see your body moving
And it’s driving me crazy
And I, didn’t have the slightest idea
Until I saw you dancing

And when you walk up on the dance floor
Nobody cannot ignore the way you move your body, girl
And everything so unexpected -the way you right and left it
So you can keep on shaking it

I never really knew that she could dance like this
She makes a man want to speak Spanish
Como si llama,si bonita, si mi casa, su casa

Shakira, Shakira

Oh baby when you talk like that
You make the woman go mad
So be wise and keep on
Reading the signs of my body

I am on tonight
You know my hips don’t lie
And I am starting to feel you boy
Come on lets go, real slow
Don’t you see baby asi es perfecto

Oh I know I am on tonight my hips don’t lie
And I am starting to feel it’s right
All the attraction, the tension
Don’t you see baby, this is perfection

Shakira, Shakira

Oh boy, I can see your body moving
Half animal, half man

I don’t, don’t really know what I’m doing

But you seem to have a plan
My will and self restraint
Have come to fail now, fail now
See, I am doing what I can, but I can’t so you know
That’s a bit too hard to explain

Baila en la calle de noche
Baila en la calle de noche

Baila en la calle de noche
Baila en la calle día

I never really knew that she could dance like this
She makes a man want to speak Spanish
Como si llama,si bonita, si mi casa, su casa

Shakira, Shakira

Oh baby when you talk like that
You know you got me hypnotized
So be wise and keep on
Reading the signs of my body

Señorita, feel the conga, let me see you move like you come from Colombia

Mira en Barranquilla se baila así, say!
Mira en Barranquilla se baila así

Yeah

She’s so sexy every man’s fantasy a refugee like me back with the refugees from a 3rd world country
I go back like when ‘pac carried crates for Humpty Humpty
We need a whole club dizzy
Why the CIA wanna watch?
From Colombians and Haitians

I ain’t guilty, it’s a musical transaction
No more do we snatch ropes
Refugees run the seas ’cause we own our own boats

I’m on tonight, my hips don’t lie
And I’m starting to feel you boy
Come on let’s go, real slow
Baby, like this is perfecto

Oh, you know I’m on tonight and my hips don’t lie
And I am starting to feel it’s right
The attraction, the tension
Baby, like this is perfection.
