What I Did For Love / The Rose Lyrics - Michael Ball

Kiss today goodbye, 

The sweetness and the sorrow. 

Wish me luck, the same to you. 

But I can't regret 

What I did for love, what I did for love. 

Look my eyes are dry. 

The gift was ours to borrow. 

It's as if we always knew, 

And I won't forget what I did for love, 

What I did for love. 

Gone, 

Love is never gone. 

As we travel on, 

Love's what we'll remember. 

Kiss today goodbye, 

And point me t'ward tomorrow. 

We did what we had to do. 

Won't forget, can't regret what I did for love, 

What I did for love. 

Some say love, 

It is a river that drowns the tender reed. 

Some say love, 

It is a razor that leaves your soul to bleed. 

Some say love, 

It is a hunger, an endless aching need. 

I say love, it is a flower, 

And you its only seed. 

Its the heart, afraid of breaking, 

That never learns to dance. 

Its the dream, afraid of waking, 

That never takes a chance. 

Its the one who wont be taken, 

Who cannot seem to give. 

And the soul, afraid of dying, 

That never learns to live. 

When the night has been too lonely, 

And the road has been to long, 

And you think that love is only for 

The lucky and the strong 

Just remember 

In the winter far beneath the bitter snows 

Lies the seed that with the suns love 

In the spring becomes the... 

Love is never gone. 

As we travel on, 

Love's what we'll remember. 

Kiss today goodbye, 

And point me t'ward tomorrow. 

We did what we had to do. 

Won't forget, can't regret what I did for love, 

What I did for love.
