For Life Lyrics

There's not a word

In the English language

That works for when I'm trying to say this

The thing I want you to know

Cause it's not like your romantic graces

Make me want to kiss your face

It's just I don't ever want you to go

No I don't love you like a lover

But I don't love you like a friend

And if we're somewhere in the middle

Can't we stay there till the end

For life

I wanna hold you for life

So I can see how you shine

As you find your wings

And I

Have got this peace of mind

With your hand holding mine

Through the simple things

I'm not your wife but I truly think

I'm gonna love you for life

So I'll get out that old thesaurus

And try to make some sense of this

Cause the world doesn't understand

But I guess it doesn't matter

As we're in this holding pattern

As long as I'm holding your hand

For life

I wanna hold you for life

So I can see how you shine

As you find your wings

And I

I got this peace of mind

With your hand holding mine

Through the simple things

I'm not your wife but I truly think

I'm gonna love you for life

No I don't love you like a lover

But I don't love you like a friend

And if we're somewhere in the middle

Won't you stay?

Won't you stay?

For life

I wanna hold you for life

So I can see how you shine

As you find your wings

And I

I got this peace of mind

With your hand holding mine

Through the simple things

I'm not your wife but I truly think

I'm gonna love you for life
