I am just a working legend
And it takes up all my nights
I've given up on happy endings
But not without a fight

I've propped myself up on gagged edges
Gone into a dark abyss
And I've lived for love
I cried for love
I died for love and lived

Yes, I lived for love
I cried for love
I died for love and lived

I have loved them with abandon
I've been careless with my life
I've had to lose more than one heartache
If I was to survive

But there's a part of me beside you
That has learned how to forgive
And I've lived for love
I cried for love
I died for love and lived
Yes, I lived for love
Cried for love
I died for love and lived

Oh oh oh ohh ohh
Oh oh oh ohh ohh
I died for love and here I am
Oh oh oh ohh ohh
Oh oh oh ohh ohh
I died for love and I'm still here

So for all of you who've lost in love
To all who have been burned
A little lovin' spent is a lot of living earned

So don't you be afraid to love
Don't you be afraid to give
'Cause first you live for love
You cry for love
You die for love and yeah

Yes, I lived for love
Cried for love
I died for love and lived

Yes, I lived for love
Cried for love
I died for love and lived
Oh oh oh ohh ohh
Oh oh oh ohh ohh
I died for love and here I am
Here's the truth, pass it on
I'll be through before I'm gone
I died for love and here I am

I am just a working legend
And it takes up all my nights
I've given up on happy endings
But not without a fight

I've propped myself up on gagged edges
Gone into a dark abyss
And I've lived for love
I cried for love
I died for love and I

Oh yeah, I lived for love
I cried for love
I died for love and

Yeah, I lived for love
I cried for love
I died for love and
Oh oh, I've lived for love
I lived for love
I cried for love
I died for love and lived
