[Verse 1: Andy Bell]
I couldn't fix my heart 'cause everything was hurting
But I've been growing stronger since you came along
I know that life is precious, gotta make the most of it
Making every second count of every day

[Pre-Chorus: Andy Bell]
You are the food for my soul
The tears in my heart

[Chorus: Andy Bell]
You are the reason I live
You are the reason that I forgive
The only reason I live
The only reason that I forgive

[Verse 2: Andy Bell]
I always lived my life like some kind of fairytale
'Til you gave it mеaning, put my feet on the ground

[Pre-Chorus: Andy Bell]
You are the food for my soul
Thе tears in my heart

[Chorus: Andy Bell]
You are the reason I live
You are the reason that I forgive
The only reason I live
The only reason that I forgive
[Post-Chorus 1: Andy Bell, (Emma Whittle & Valerie Chalmers)]
'Cause you give a little love
When I'm all out of it
Never get enough
I scream and shout for it
Give a little love
I'm all over it
Never get enough
I scream and shout for your love
(Shout for your love)
(Shout for your love)
(Shout for the reason that I forgive)

[Post-Chorus 2: Andy Bell]
Give a little love
I'm all out of it
Never get enough
Scream and shout for it
Give a little love
I'm all over it
Never get enough
Scream and shout for it

[Chorus: Andy Bell, Emma Whittle & Valerie Chalmers]
(You are) The reason I live
You are the reason that I forgive
The only reason I live
The only reason that I forgive
[Post-Chorus 1: Andy Bell, Emma Whittle & Valerie Chalmers]
'Cause you give a little love
I'm all out of it
Never get enough
I scream and shout for it
Give a little love
I'm all over it
Never get enough
I scream and shout for your love
