Collin Raye - What I Did For Love lyrics

(Brent Maher/Thom Schuyler)

Everybody's heart is torn and tattered

Mine was not designed for giving up

'Cause all I've ever done that really matters

Is what I did for love

So count me with the wounded and the shaken

Even when I'm barely standing up

I've tried to offer more than I have taken

That's what I did for love

What I did for love

I gave everything

And I hope that you can see

All that love has given me

When they sit and list the reasons I existed

I'm afraid it won't add up to very much

'Cause I gathered all I had and gladly risked it

That's what I did for love

Yeah

What I did for love

I gave everything

And I hope that you can see

All that love has given me

Someday I may silently surrender

When this old heart has finally had enough

But I hope that I will always be remembered

By what I did for love

See all I've ever done that really matters

Is what I did for love
