For You Songtext

von Emerson, Lake & Palmer

For you and I
There never was a way to say goodbye
The nights of love
We loved so hard we shook the stars above
Ooh, such a love

Expecting so much, as we touched
That each the other led to the fire
Was it the words left unspoken
Scared for my heart, she's been broken
That in the ice of a moment
You closed the doors on our love

Now for you and for me
Lies branded on our hearts the memory
Just a glance and a smile
A looking back and knowing all the while
Ooh, it was love

As close as it'll ever come, it's not a crime
For two lonely people to try
To find some love in the madness
Of this world full of sadness
And though we woke in the ashes
Just for a while we had dreamed

I gave you all I could give
It was for you that I lived
Why did you do what you did
And close the door of my heart

Next time you fall in love
You'd better tell the truth
Next time you fall in love
Don't do it just for you
For you, for you, for you
For you, for you, for you
For you
For you, for you, for you
For you, for you, for you
