Love You For Life
Jodeci · Other Songs - Jodeci
All the things you told me
You said you never leave me
We'd be together for eternity
But now it's all in the past
Now I know our love will last
Lady I will do all I can
Lady I will be all I am
I'll give you all you had before
So come in and close the door
Let me show you what our love could be
would you just please tell me
chorus
do you believe in love
And the promises that it gives
I wanna love you for life
Cuz you're love is why I live
do you believe in love
And the promises that it gives
I wanna love you for life
Cuz your love is why i live
I know that things are rough
But my faith wasn't strong enough
Now my heart is built to last
My heart is beating for you fast
But now I know that you understand
I wanna take you by the hand
And walk with you down that aisle
And with you I will live my life(I will)
I'll give you all you had before
So come on in and close the door
Let me show you what our love could be
If you just please tell me
Chorus
do you believe in love (baby baby tell me )
And the promises that it gives(I wanna know)
I wanna love you for life (Because your love because your love)
Cuz you're love is why I live
do you believe in love(uhhhhhhh yeah oh hehhh)
And the promises that it gives
I wanna love you for life
Cuz your love is why i live
I want you to know that it's for real
This feeling that we feel
I want you to know it's so real
Tell me will you
Chorus 3x
