[English]

Look into my eyes

you will see

what you mean to me

Search your heart,

search your soul

And when you find me there,

you'll search no more

Don't tell me it's not worth tryin' for

You can't tell me it's not worth dyin' for

You know it's true

Everything I do,

I do it for you

Look into your heart,

you will find

there's nothing there to hide

Take me as I am,

take my life

I would give it all,

I would sacrifice

Don't tell me it's not worth fightin' for

I can't help it,

there's nothing I want more

You know it's true

Everything I do,

I do it for you

There's no love

like your love

And no other

could give more love

There's nowhere

unless you're there

All the time,

all the way,

yeah

Oh you can't tell me it's not worth tryin' for

I can't help it, there's nothing I want more

Yeah, I'd fight for you,

I'd lie for you

Walk the wire for you,

yeah I'd die for you

You know it's true

Everything I do,

oh

I do it for you
