Lyrics
Only Thing
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.
I've made many mistakes in my lifetime
The foolish things I've done might have been few
But the only thing I've ever done worth doing
Is all in love with you.
I've wasted many a tear in my lifetime
On foolish dreams that never could come true
But the only thing I've ever done worth doing
Is all in love with you.
Because of you I changed my way of living
Because of you my lifetime changed a lot
The only thing worth having is worth giving
The best of everything you've got.
I've wasted many a day being lonely
But now I know my lonely days are through
'Cause the only thing I've ever done worth doing
Is all in love with you.
Yes, the only thing I've ever done worth doing
Is all in love with you...
