No Surrender [Turkish translation]

Well, we busted out of class

Had to get away from those fools

We learned more from a 3-minute record, baby

Than we ever learned in school

Tonight I hear the neighborhood drummer sound

I can feel my heart begin to pound

You say you're tired and you just want to close your eyes

And follow your dreams down

[Chorus:]

Well, we made a promise we swore we'd always remember

No retreat, baby, no surrender

Like soldiers in the winter's night

With a vow to defend

No retreat, baby, no surrender

Well, now young faces grow sad and old

And hearts of fire grow cold

We swore blood brothers against the wind

Now I'm ready to grow young again

And hear your sister's voice calling us home

Across the open yards

Well maybe we'll cut someplace of own

With these drums and these guitars

'Cause we made a promise we swore we'd always remember

No retreat, baby, no surrender

Blood brothers in the stormy night

With a vow to defend

No retreat, baby, no surrender

Now on the street tonight the lights grow dim

The walls of my room are closing in

There's a war outside still raging

You say it ain't ours anymore to win

I want to sleep beneath

Peaceful skies in my lover's bed

With a wide open country in my eyes

And these romantic dreams in my head

Once we made a promise we swore we'd always remember

No retreat, baby, no surrender

Blood brothers in a stormy night

With a vow to defend

No retreat, baby, no surrender
