"For Love" lyrics
"For Love"
We rose early on a desert morning
Into the burning sands we go
Said "good day" to the thieves and fakers
We did it all for a chance to tell a tale
We rode on until early next morning
Eyes burned and our nerves were frayed
I confess I felt so worthless
I lost hope, big price to pay
Now there were stars and there were wild birds circling
A lot of screams and a fight breaks out
Between wars and between burnings
He did it all for a chance to die for love
I went higher than I'd ever been before
I went lower than the depths could hold
I said a prayer, then without warning
A figure rose up from the desert floor
He looked at me, said "how high are you?"
I looked at him with my one good eye
We just smiled and stared in silence
He did it all for a chance to die for love
For love
For love
For love
We think again on the dreams that made us
As I stare into your beautiful eyes
There came a day when the words had meaning
The sky cried and the waters came rushing
I do believe you are the lone survivor
I suspect you of the bravest deeds
He just smiled and said it's all worth it
I fell down on my knees and I cried for love
For love
For love
For love
Love love love
For love
For love
For love
Love love love (love)
