What Am I Living For?
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well, what am I living for if not for you?
What am I living for if not for you?
Well, what am I living for if not for you?
Baby, Baby, nobody else, nobody else will do.
Well, what am I longing for each lonely night?
To feel you lips close to mine and hold you tight.
Well, you'll be my only love my whole life through.
Baby, Baby, nobody else, nobody else will do.
Well, I want you close to me
That's all I know.
And I want you all the time
'Cause darling I love you so.
Well, what am I living for if not for you?
What am I living for if not for you?
Well, what am I living for if not for you?
Baby, Baby, nobody else, nobody else will do.
