What I did for love
|
|
Everybody’s heart is torn and tattered
|
Mine was not designed for giving up
|
‘cos all I’ve ever done that really matters
|
It’s what I did for love.
|
|
So count me with the wound and the shaking
|
Even when I’m barely standing up
|
I’ve tried to offer more than I have taken
|
It’s what I did for love.
|
|
What I did for love, what I did for love
|
And I hope that you can see
|
All that love they’ve done for me
|
|
And when they sit and list the reasons I’ve existed
|
I’m afraid it won’t add up to very much
|
‘cos I’ve gathered all I had and gladly rested
|
that’s what I did for love.
|
|
What I did for love, …
|
|
Some day I may silently surrender
|
This old heart has finally had enough
|
But I hope that I will always be remembered
|
For what I did for love.
