I'll Live for You

(Bill Anderson)



I can't settle down and marry you we both know that

But I dedicate my life to you each minute that I live

And if you'll only try and take me like I am

I'll give you what there is of me to give.



I can't live with you but I'll live for you

Every minute, every hour, every day

I can't live with you but I'll live for you

And I'll try to make you happy in my own way.



--- Instrumental ---



I'll ache for you each morning when the sun comes up

I'll dream of you at midnight when I lay me down to sleep

I'll be true to you with every single breath I take

All that's mine but me is yours to keep.



I can't live with you but I'll live for you

Every minute, every hour, every day

I can't live with you but I'll live for you

And I'll try to make you happy in my own way...
