I'd Give My Life For You Lyrics

KIM

you who I cradled in my arms, you

asking as little as you can

little snip of a little man

I know I'd give my life for you

you didn't ask me to be born, you

why should you learn of war or pain

to make sure you're not hurt again

I swear I'd give my life for you

I've tasted love beyond all fear

and you should know it's love that brought you here

and in one perfect night

when the stars burned like new

I knew what I must do

I'll give you a million things I'll never own

I'll give you a world to conquer when you're grown

you will be who you want to be, you

can choose whatever heaven grants

as long as you can have your chance

I swear I'll give my life for you

sometimes I wake up

reaching for him

I feel his shadow brush my head

but there's just moonlight on my bed

was he a ghost? was he a lie

that made my body laugh and cry?

then, by my side, the proof I see:

his little one, gods of the sun, bring him to me!

you will be who you want to be, you

can choose whatever heaven grants

as long as you can have your chance

I swear I'll give my life for you

no one can stop what I must do

I swear I'll give my life for you.

FIRST GROUP

no place, no home

no life, no hope

no chance, no change

SECOND GROUP

no regret, no return

no good-bye, no regret

no return, no good-bye

FIRST GROUP

no place, no home

no life, no hope

no chance, no change

SECOND GROUP

no regret, no return

no good-bye, no regret

no return, no good-bye

no regret...

FIRST GROUP

no place, no home

no life, no hope

no chance, no change

no...

THIRD GROUP

one day, one night

one day, one night

one day, one night

one day...
