Lyrics

I’ve gone from a hawk to a dove
Want to make love, not war
I’ve swung from Mars to Venus
Don’t want to fight with you anymore

Let’s see if we can make a truce
We’ve only got our pride to lose
Put down your weapons
Strip off your camouflage
State your conditions, honey
No need to sound the charge

Surely we can find a common ground
Got to stop those missiles raining down, down, down

I’ve gone from a hawk to a dove
Want to make love, not war
I’ve swung from Mars to Venus
Don’t want to fight with you anymore

From a hawk to a dove
We can find a way
From a hawk to a dove
We can find a way

I’ve gone from a hawk to a dove
Want to make love, not war
I’ve swung from Mars to Venus
Don’t want to fight with you anymore

Hello Peter,

This is a cool and smooth sounding one indeed!
The dreamy guitar realtrack works very good here.

Very nice!

I liked the vocals and the lyrics the best but the backing tracks, especially the guitars, and the leads were also super.

The mix was top notch also!


The bumper sticker said "I'm a veterinarian, therefore I can drive like an animal".
Suddenly I realized how many proctologists are on the road.
