Lyrics

Kiss today goodbye
The sweetness and the sorrow
We did what we had to do
And I can't regret what I did for love
What I did for love
Look my eyes are dry
The dream was ours to borrow
It's as if we always knew
But I won't forget what I did for love
What I did for love
Gone, love is never gone
As we travel on
Love's what we'll remember
Kiss today goodbye
And point toward tomorrow
Wish me luck, the same to you
Won't forget, can't regret
What I did for love
Gone, love is never gone
As we travel on
Love's what we'll remember
Kiss today goodbye
And point toward tomorrow
Wish me luck, the same to you
Won't forget, can't regret
What I did for love
What I did for love
What I did for love
