Love was in her heart

But I had dreams to find before I could see

I asked her if she'd wait for me

But I was gone too long

Tears were in her eyes

She said I took our love and threw it away

And nothin' I could do or say

Could bring it back again



I was tryin' to be somethin' more

Than the man I had come to be

I never meant to leave her sad and lonely

If only she could see



I did it all for love

All for love

'Cause nothin' really matters if it's strong enough

All for love

All for love

No, nothin' really matters if you've got enough



She walked out that door

And all my dreams went with her into the night

I wondered how a love so right

Could ever slip away

Love was in her heart

But I had dreams to find before I could see

That somewhere deep inside of me

She'll always be the one



I was tryin' to be somethin' more

Than the man I had come to be

Never meant to leave her sad and lonely

If only she could see



I did it all for love

All for love

'Cause nothin' really matters if it's strong enough

All for love

All for love

No, nothin' really matters if you've got enough



I did it all for love

All for love

'Cause nothin' really matters if it's strong enough

All for love

All for love

No, nothin' really matters but I want her by my side



I did it all for love

All for love

'Cause nothin' really matters if it's strong enough

All for love

All for love

No, nothin' really matters but I want her
