Lyrics: Everything I Do (I Do It For You) by Bryan Adams
Look into my eyes – you will see
What you mean to me
Search your heart, search your soul
And when you find me there, you’ll search no more
Don’t tell me it’s not worth tryin’ for
You can’t tell me it’s not worth dyin’ for
You know it’s true:
Everything I do, I do it for you
Look into your heart – you will find
There’s nothin’ there to hide
Take me as I am, take my life
I would give it all, I would sacrifice
Don’t tell me it’s not worth fightin’ for
I can’t help it, there’s nothin’ I want more
You know it’s true:
Everything I do, I do it for you, oh, yeah
There’s no love like your love
And no other could give more love
There’s nowhere unless you’re there
All the time, all the way, yeah
Look into your heart, baby…
Oh, you can’t tell me it’s not worth tryin’ for
I can’t help it, there’s nothin’ I want more
Yeah, I would fight for you, I’d lie for you
Walk the wire for you, yeah, I’d die for you
You know it’s true:
Everything I do, oh, I do it for you
Everything I do, darling
You will see it’s true
You will see it’s true
Yeah!
Search your heart and your soul
You can’t tell it’s not worth dying for
I’ll be there
I’d walk the fire for you
I’d die for you
Oh, yeah
I’m going all the time, all the way
