For Love Alone Lyrics - Michael Feinstein

For love alone, I did what otherwise I never could have done 

Though if I lost a race or two, I should have won 

And aimed a few too many arrows at the sun, it has been fine 

When I was shown how very steep the price can be when love goes wrong 

I held my hasty heart in check but not for long 

Somehow I never could resist that siren song 

If some dark day, I wake to find the love 

I thought was here to stay has slipped away 

I'll simply say, these are the breaks 

One makes mistakes, I bought the lies 

But now I'm wise 

And from the ashes 

Like the phoenix I will rise 

And sail the skies 

For nothing dies that flies for love alone 

But now I'm wise 

Like the phoenix I will rise 

And sail the skies 

For nothing dies that flies for love alone 

For love alone
