Just For You Lyrics

Lionel Richie

Golden day’s life was playing
Pain was all a world away
We went to school
We learned the rules
We trusted all they had to say
Then life took a turn we all had to learn
And we can’t go back again
That my heart is breaking
Just for you just for you
And my arms are open
Just for you just for you
Just for you
God was god dreams where dreams
Life was all weekend ice-cream
Truth was true and lies where lies
And we thought that love would never die
But the world moved on my illusions gone
And I don’t know who to blame
And my heart is breaking
Just for you just for you
And my arms are open
Just for you just for you
And these tears I’m crying
Are for you just for you
Just for you
I’m looking for protection
Give me shelter from the storm
I just hope this light inside me
Keeps me strong
Oh
That my heart is breaking
Just for you just for you
And my arms they’re open
Just for you just for you
And these tears I’m crying
Are for you just for you
Just for you just for you
Oh these tears I’m crying
I’m just for you
Oh I feel like crying
Just for you
Oh my heart is breaking
And my arms are open
Oh these tears I’m crying
There just for you
Oh just for you
Can’t you see I’m crying?
Just for you
Oh yeah
