Every night that I held you
Made Heaven from Hell, yeah, I did it for love
Like the change of the season
You grew cold for that reason, I did it for love
And when it all went wrong
And there's no use hanging on
I turned and walked away
I did it, I did it, I did it for love
Now you wanna know
Why I let you go, I did it for love
Well, I thought that I was tough
Well, I guess I'm not tough enough
I didn't do it for the glory, I did it for love
When you were lost in the night
And you feared for your life I came running to you
And as I held you so tight
You said, "Forever you and I" but girl, I knew
And now you stand and you say
How could I walk away
I love you too much to stay
I did it, I did it, I did it for love
Now you wanna know
Why I let you go, I did it for love
Well, I thought that I was tough
Well, I guess I'm not tough enough
I didn't do it for the glory
To be the sorrow of the story, I did it for love
Oh, I remember how it started
And we felt so alive
And the passion was burning inside
There's a lesson in love when the heart grows wild
Well, I thought that I was tough
Well, I guess I ain't tough enough
I did it for love, oh, oh
I did it, I did it, I did it for love
Now you wanna know
Why I let you go, I did it for love
Oh, I did it, I did it, I did it for love, oh
Now you wanna know
Why I let you go, I did it for love, I did it for love
Oh, I did it, I did it, I did it for love, oh
Now you wanna know
