Charles Aznavour
I Live For You (Je meurs de toi)
I can still remember how you walked away
And what was there I could do
Standing there, I fumbled for some word to say
That might have touched you then
That would have said again
I live for you
But you walked away without a second glance
Although I reached for your hand
Were you so afraid to take that second chance
To live the life we planned
To see it through, for don't you understand
I live for you
My heart's an empty place without you
I cannot face it when you're gone
You are my everything, you're every song I sing
You are the reason I go on
You spray the magic world about you
You paint the heavens blue
I wait each day to live for you
I remember now how you came back to me
Now all my shadows have passed
Losing all my pain in your embrace again
I kiss your face again, as in the past
You understand at last, my world's all through
This life I live, I live for you
