Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Oh, I would do anything for love
I'd run right into hell and back
Oh, I would do anything for love
I'd never lie to you and that's a fact
But I'll never forget the way you feel right now
Oh, no, no way
Oh, I would do anything for love
But I won't do that
No, I won't do that
[Verse 2]
I would do anything for love
Oh, I would do anything for love
Oh, I would do anything for love
But I won't do that
No, I won't do that
[Verse 3]
Some days it don't come easy
And some days it don't come hard
Some days it don't come at all, and these are the days that never end
And some nights you're breathin' fire
And some nights you're carved in ice
Some nights you're like nothin' I've ever seen before or will again
[Verse 4]
And maybe I'm crazy, but it's crazy and it's true
I know you can save me, no one else can save me now but you
[Verse 5]
As long as the planets are turnin'
As long as the stars are burnin'
As long as your dreams are comin' true
You'll never believe that
[Verse 6]
That I would do anything for love
And I'll be there until the final act
Oh, I would do anything for love
And I'll take your vow and seal the pact
But I'll never forgive myself if we don't go all the way tonight
Oh, I would do anything for love
Oh, I would do anything for love
Oh, I would do anything for love
But I won't do that
No, I won't do that
[Verse 7]
I would do anything for love
Anything you've been dreamin' of
But I just won't do that
I would do anything for love
Anything you've been dreamin' of
But I just won't do that
I would do anything for love
Anything you've been dreamin' of
But I won't do that
[Verse 8]
And some days I pray for silence
And some days I pray for soul
Some days I just pray to the God of sex, and drums, and rock n' roll
Ans some nights I lose the fear
And some nights I lose control
Some nights I just lose it all when I watch you dance and the thunder roll
[Verse 9]
Maybe I'm lonely, that's all I'm qualified to be
That just one and only, the one and only promise I can keep
[Verse 10]
As long as the wheels are turnin'
As long as the fires are burnin'
As long as your prayers are comin' true
You'd better believe it, that I would do
[Verse 11]
Anything for love
And you know it's true and that's a fact
I would do anything for love, and there'll never be no turnin' back
But I'll never do it better than I do it with you, so long, so long
I would do anything for love
Oh, I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
But I won't do that
Oh, no, no, I won't do that
[Verse 12]
I would do anything for love
Anything you've been dreamin' of
But I just won't do that
I would do anything for love
Anything you've been dreamin' of
But I just won't do that
I would do anything for love
Anything you've been dreamin' of
But I just won't do that
[Verse 13]
I would do anything for love
Anything you've been dreamin' of
But I just won't do that
I would do anything for love
Anything you've been dreamin' of
But I just won't do that
I would do anything for love
Anything you've been dreamin' of
But I just won't do that
I would do anything for love
Anything you've been dreamin' of
But I just won't do
[Verse 14]
But I'll never stop dreamin' of you
Every night of my life, no way
I would do anything for love
Oh, I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
But I won't do that
No, I won't do that
[Verse 15]
Will you raise me up, will you help me down?
We could get me right out of this godforsaken town
Can you make it all a little less cold?
I can do that, I can do that
[Verse 16]
Will you hold me sacred, will you hold me tight?
Can you colorize my life?
I'm so sick of black and white
Can you make it all a little less cold?
I can do that, oh no, I can do that
[Verse 17]
Will you make me some magic with your own two hands?
Can you build in them a city with these grains of sand?
Can you give me somethin' I can take home?
I can do that, oh no, I can do that
[Verse 18]
Can you cater to every fantasy I got?
Can you hose me down with holy water, if I get too hot?
Will you take me places I've never known?
I can do that, oh no, I can do that
[Verse 19]
After awhile, you forget everything
It was a brief interlude and a mid summer night's fling
Can you see that it's time to move on?
I won't do that
No, I won't do that
[Verse 20]
I know the territory, I've been around
It'll all turn to dust and we'll all fall down
Sooner or later you'll be screwin' around
I won't do that
No, I won't do that
I would do anything for love
Oh, I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
But I won't do that
No, I won't do that
