[Spoken Intro: Barbra Streisand & Patrick Wilson]
You have to face the truth. You have to let me go
I can't. You don't understand...

[Verse 1: Barbra Streisand]
Loving you is not a choice
It's who I am
Loving you is not a choice
And not much reason to rejoice
But it gives me purpose
Gives me voice to say to the world:
This is why I live
You are why I live

[Spoken Interlude: Barbra Streisand & Patrick Wilson]
Can't you see it's over?
I don't believe that

[Verse 2: Barbra Streisand]
Loving you is why I do
The things I do
Loving you is not in my control
But loving you, I have a goal
For what's left of my life
I will live
And I would die for you
[Spoken Interlude: Barbra Streisand & Patrick Wilson]
Don't say that
Then say you don't love me
But you know I do

[Verse 3: Barbra Streisand & Patrick Wilson]
Loving you is not a choice
It's who I am
Loving you is not a choice
And not much reason to rejoice
But it gives me purpose
Gives me voice to say to the world:
This is why I live
You are why I live

[Verse 4: Barbra Streisand, Patrick Wilson & Both]
Loving you is why I do the things I do (The things I do)
Loving you is not in my control (Not in my control)
But loving you, I have a goal
For what's left of my life (For the rest of my life)
I will live
And I would die for you
For you
For you, I would die for you
For you
