What I Did for Love (Feat. Emeli Sande) Lyrics
David Guetta
Talking loud, talking crazy
Lock me outside
Prayin' for the rain to come
Bone dry again
Guess it's true what they say
I'm always late
Say you need a little space
But I'm in your way
It hurts, that I remember every scar
And I've learned
But living is the hardest part
I can't believe what I did for love
I can't believe what I did for us
Passionately burning to flames
Stitch myself up, then I do it again
I can't believe what I did for love
What I did for love
What I did for love [x8]
I'm a fool for your games
But I always play
Can't admit it was a waste
Just too much at stake
It hurts, that I remember every scar
And I've learned
But living is the hardest part
I can't believe what I did for love
I can't believe what I did for us
Passionately burning to flames
Stitch myself up, then I do it again
I can't believe what I did for love
What I did for love
What I did for love [x6]
I can't believe what I did for love
Lock me outside
Prayin' for the rain to come
Bone dry again
Guess it's true what they say
I'm always late
Say you need a little space
But I'm in your way
It hurts, that I remember every scar
And I've learned
But living is the hardest part
I can't believe what I did for love
I can't believe what I did for us
Passionately burning to flames
Stitch myself up, then I do it again
I can't believe what I did for love
What I did for love
What I did for love [x8]
I'm a fool for your games
But I always play
Can't admit it was a waste
Just too much at stake
It hurts, that I remember every scar
And I've learned
But living is the hardest part
I can't believe what I did for love
I can't believe what I did for us
Passionately burning to flames
Stitch myself up, then I do it again
I can't believe what I did for love
What I did for love
What I did for love [x6]
I can't believe what I did for love
