And I would do anything for love I'd run right into hell and back I would do anything for love I'll never lie to you and thats a fact
And I'll never forget the way you feel right now, Oh no ... no way And I would do anything for love But I won't do that, no I won't do that
- Anything for love - oh I would do - Anything for love - I would do - Anything for love - but I - won't do that - Huh, no I won't do that
(Band in )
And some days it don't come easy And some days it don't come hard Some days it don't come at all And these are the days that never end
And some nights you're breathing fire And some nights you're carved in ice Some nights you're like nothing I've ever Seen before, or will again
And maybe I'm crazy Oh it's crazy and its true I know you can save me No one else can save me now but you
As long as the planets are turning As long as the stars are burning As long as you're dreams are coming true You'd better believe it, that I would do
Anything for love And I'll be there till the final act - Ah, ah - And I would do anything for love And I'll take the vow and seal a pact - Ah, ah -
And I'll never forgive myself if we don't go all the Way - To night - And I would do anything for love But I won't do that No I won't do that
I would do anything for love Anything you've been dreaming of But I just won't do that - I would do anything for love - - Anything you've been dreaming of - - But I just won't do that -
Ah, ah, ah ..... !
(Instrumental)
And some days I pray for silence And some days I pray for soul Some days I just pray to the god of Sex and drums and rock and roll
And some nights I lose the feeling And some nights I lose control Some nights I just lose it all when I'm Watchin' you dance and the thunder rolls
And maybe I'm lonely If we're apart then I could be There's just one and only One and only promise I can keep
As long as the wheels are turning As long as the fires are burning As long as your thrills are coming too You'd better believe it, that I would do
Anything for love And you know its true and thats a fact And I would do anything for love And there'll never be no turning back
But I'll never do it better than I do it with you So long, so long And I would do anything for love Oh I would do anything for love I would do anything for love But I won't do that No, no, no I won't do that
(Female vocal)
Will you raise me up will you help me down Will you get me right out of this god forsaken town Will you make it all a little less cold - I can do that, oh I can do that -
Will you hold me sacred, will you hold me tight Can you colourise my life I'm so sick of black white Can you make it all a little less old - I can do that, oh, oh now I can do that -
Will you favour to every fantasy I've got Will you hose me down with holy water, if I get too hot - Hot ! - Will you take me places I'd never go - Now I can do that, ah, ah, now I can do that -
I know the territory I've been around It'll all turn to dust and we'll all fall down Sooner or later you'll be screwing around
(Male vocal)
I won't do that, no I won't do that
Anything for love Oh I would do anything for love I would do anything for love But I won't do that No I won't do that
