But love is what you stay for
But you didn't hear that from me
Waiting for someone who'll take on the blame
And love is what you stay for
Feeling bad and looking fine
When I hear you crying at night
But love is what you stay for
And the least I can do is share it with you
You didn't hear that from me
I'll hold you tight, oh now
I'll try to sum it up in a few simple lines
But you didn't hear that from me
And I know it's pretty damn funny
'Cause we spend a lot of money
Everyone says that it's covered in pain
Oh, baby, life is what you pray for
Share it, baby
And I know it's pretty damn funny
(Life is what you pray for)
But you didn't hear that from me
Oh, life is what you pray for
Oh, darling, life is what you pray for
Like the world is on your shoulders
'Cause I know a secret or two
How simple it can be
Share it with you
How simple it can be
(Love is what you stay for)
You didn't hear that from me
The sooner you stand up, the sooner you'll know
And I know it's pretty damn funny
Oh, it takes a lot of courage to know you're not alone
You didn't hear that from me
(Life is what you pray for)
How simple it can be
