Texty: Jan Howard. For Loving You.
For loving you, for needing you
But most of all, for loving you, for loving you
For loving you, my life is so much richer
You've given so much to live for
And I never really lived before, before loving you
(For loving you)
And for loving you, my faith is a little stronger
For a world that could give you to me
Couldn't be as bad as it's made out to be, there was good there
I just could never see before loving you
(For loving you, for needing you)
(But most of all, for loving you, for needing you)
And for needing you, I feel a whole lot stronger
For there's a strength that comes from knowing you
Need to give up yourself
And darling, I gave so much of myself loving you
(For losing you)
And now I'm losing you and I'm a sadder, lonelier man
Than I ever thought any man could be
But even in my loneliness
Even as I walk the hunting trail of memory
Even for all the pain that I'm feeling right now
Never once will I ever regret
Having had the chance of loving you
(Loving you)
But most of all, for loving you, for loving you
For loving you, my life is so much richer
You've given so much to live for
And I never really lived before, before loving you
(For loving you)
And for loving you, my faith is a little stronger
For a world that could give you to me
Couldn't be as bad as it's made out to be, there was good there
I just could never see before loving you
(For loving you, for needing you)
(But most of all, for loving you, for needing you)
And for needing you, I feel a whole lot stronger
For there's a strength that comes from knowing you
Need to give up yourself
And darling, I gave so much of myself loving you
(For losing you)
And now I'm losing you and I'm a sadder, lonelier man
Than I ever thought any man could be
But even in my loneliness
Even as I walk the hunting trail of memory
Even for all the pain that I'm feeling right now
Never once will I ever regret
Having had the chance of loving you
(Loving you)
