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 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
