For Love Alone

Lyrics

I never stop to check it out
 I never look to see
 Where my life is going, what's up ahead of me
 I put my foot to the floor
 I feel that I'm that sure
 I drive like I'm not scared any place and anywhere
 Never mind the friends who call
 Saying "Betty don't risk it all"
 Take it easy don't dive in
 I never listen I keep driving
 For love alone, oh, I'd risk anything I own, anything
 Oh, for love alone, I live for love alone
 Hey yeah, yeah, yeah, mmm
 Just keep this thought in mind, I'm not a fool for pain
 And I could move a mountain, If love still remains
 I'll never change, I guess, ooh, faith is apart of me
 I'm always believing in what no man can see
 If my heart tells me it's love, then what am I afraid of?
 Well, maybe I'm not too smart but, I know what I feel
 I know what I feel in my heart
 For love alone, oh, I'd risk anything I own, anything
 Oh, for love alone
 Yes, for love, for love, for love
 I look at the stars at night
 And I pray by candle light
 Hoping that the lord will make it right
 Whatever we want to do
 He will give us strength to do
 Oh, all I know is this much
 I know what I feel when we touch
 For love alone, I'll do any, any, any, anything
 For love alone
 And I know that God will guide me safely on
 Because I live for, I live for love, I live for love alone, alone
 Ooh, not talking 'bout almost love, not talking 'bout might be love
 Not talking 'bout sometime love
 But I live, I live to give love, love, I live, I live for love alone
 Ooh-ooh-ooh
 Hey, alone
 Hey, alone
 Mm-mm-mmm
 Mm-mm-mmm
 Hey, alone
 I know a lot of girls are out there listening to this song saying
 "Huh, that's fine for her"
 But un-un, baby
 I ain't going out like that this time
 See, the last man that was with me, he hurt me
 But you know what, Sometimes love hurts
 And it's gone hurt till it stops hurting
 Just have to have a little patience sometimes, you know
 Naw, naw don't go off like that sista
 But think back to the good times
 Now as for me, see I'm a lover
 That's all I know to do
 Don't you hear that commercial on TV?
 It said "that's what I do" well, that's what I do
 I love from the bottom of the soles of my feet
 To the top of my head that's all I know to do
 And even after love has wounded me
 Left a bad scar on my heart, I don't know
 Next time love comes around I just manage to
 Reach right down in that same ole battled torn heart
 And find some more love
 'Cause that's one thing about real love
 No matter how much you give away
 You'll still have some more to give
 Love is just funny that way (real love, hurts so good)
 I don't care what anybody says
 Till the day I die I'm gonna be giving love
 I'm gon' love as long as I live
 I live for love, I live for love, I live for love alone
 (Real love)
 Now I'm talking about real love
 Now if you don't know what real love is
 You stay out of this conversation, alright?
 It's for grown people, you know
 Everyday of my life I don't care what happens
 I'm gonna live for love
 ♪
 Love, love, I'll live for love alone
 Yes, I do now
 Hey, I'll tell everybody
 I'll tell it from the mountain top
 I'll tell it, I'll tell it everywhere I go
 I live, I live for love alone
 I live for love alone, alone, alone
