Every night that I held you

Made heaven from hell, yea

I did it for love



Like the change of the season

You grew cold for that reason

I did it for love



And when it all went wrong

And there's no use hanging on

I turned and walked away



Chorus:

I did it, I did it, I did it for love

Now you wanna know

Why I let you go

I did it for love

Well, I thought that I was tough

Well, I guess I'm not tough enough

I didn't do it for the glory

I did it for love



When you were lost in the night

And you feared for your life

I came running to you



And as I held you so tight

You said forever you and I

But girl, I knew



And now you stand and you say

How could I walk away

I love you too much to stay



(chorus)



Oh, I remember how it started

And we felt so alive

And the passion was burning inside

There's a lesson in love

When the heart grows wild



Well, I thought that I was tough

Well, I guess I ain't tough enough



I did it for love

Oh, Oh



I did it, I did it, I did it for love

Now you wanna know

Why I let you go

I did it for love
