Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Drifting on a memory
Ain't no place I'd rather be than with you
Loving you
Day will make the way for night
All we need is candlelight and a song
Soft and long, well
[Verse 2]
Glad to be
Here alone with a love unlike no other
Sad to see, a new horizon slowly coming into view
[Verse 3]
I wanna be living for the love of you
All that I'm giving is for the love of you
You, you, you
[Verse 4]
Lovely as a ray of sun
That touches me when the morning comes
Feels good to me
My love and me, yeah
Smoother than a gentle breeze
Flowing through my mind with ease
Soft as can be, well
When you're loving me, ooh baby
[Verse 5]
Love to be
Riding the waves of your love enchanted with your touch
It seems to me
We can sail together in and out of mystery
[Verse 6]
I wanna be living for the love of you
Hey baby
All that I'm giving, giving is for the love of you
You, you, you, you
[Verse 7]
Paradise, I have within
Can't feel insecure again
You're the key
And this I see, well, ooh
Now and then I lose my way
Using words to try and say what I feel
Oh yeah, your love is real, ooh
[Verse 8]
I might as well
Sign my name on a card which could say it better
See, time will tell
'Cause it seems that I've done just about all that I can do
Do, do
[Verse 9]
I wanna be living for the love of you
(Only for you, only for you, boy)
All that I'm giving is for the love of you
(My love for you, baby)
I wanna be living for the love of you
All that I'm giving, giving is for the love of you
(Better believe it, boy)
I wanna be living for the love of you
(Of you, of you, of you, of you)
All that I'm giving is for the love of you (To you, to you, you)
I wanna be living for the love of you (Nobody else but you, boy)
All that I'm giving is for the love of you (Each and every day)
