Analysis of For the Love of You
I would be your life,
I could be your love,
I have been your smile,
I have been your laugh,
I love your heart,
I love your soul,
I miss your feelings,
I miss your touch,
I need your arms,
I need your love,
I want your sorrow,
I want your pain,
I give my love to you,
I give my soul to you,
I gave you my heart,
I gave you my soul,
You are my life,
You are my breathe,
You are my soul,
You are my love of a lifetime.
