lyrics

The Things We Do For Love

Ain't no mountain high enough
To keep her from your love
Ain't no river wide enough
To sail into her arms

You step out in the pouring rain
You stand outside and call her name
The things we do for love
The things we do for love

You want to feel her breath and skin
But all you have is paper thin
She must know what she means to you
If she only knew the things we do

We do for love
The things we do for love

Traveling to the places that she's been
Looking for her memory in the wind
Hoping to find her
Now you're reading all her favorite books
Collecting all the pictures that she took
That will remind her

Of things we do for Love
The things we do for love

The only one you want to see
Is on the pages in between
You've got to get to her tonight
No matter if it's wrong or right

The things we do for love
The things we do for love

Traveling to the places that she's been
Looking for her memory in the wind
Hoping to find her
Now you're reading all her favorite books
Collecting all the pictures that she took
That will remind her

Of things we do for Love
The things we do for love
The things we do for love
The things we do for love
The things we do for love
The things we do for love
The things we do for love
The things we do for love
