"Born For Loving You" lyrics

"Born For Loving You"

After the first stars formed, after the dinos fell
After the first light flickered out of this motel
1991 momma pushing like hell
Tangled in blood and vine
From my first steps to my first words
To walking around looking at birds
To the teenage nightmare, mine and yours
Thank God we made it through

'Cause I was born for loving you
It's just something I was made to do
Doesn't matter what dreams come true
I was born for loving you

Now we're here, but where is here?
When sometimes we both disappear
Into that shadow box of fear
That tiny-holed abyss
From the first kiss to the first fuck
I don't think it's just good luck
Take me to the back of your pick-up truck
Show me a thing or two

'Cause I was born for loving you
It's just something I was made to do
Doesn't matter what dreams come true
I was born for loving you

When the hard times come and the hard times stay
When they stick around and won't go away
When it seems there's nothing you can do or say
Nowhere you can turn
From the last breath of my first death
To this lifetime and lifetimes left
Congratulations, no regrets
It's true

I was born for loving you
It's just something I was made to do
Doesn't matter what dreams come true
I was born for loving you
It's just something I was made to do
Doesn't matter what dreams come true
I was born for loving you
