I used to be a hell raisin' hard livin' son of a gun   I was always searchin' for the next bit of action or fun   I had the pedal to the metal each day   I was headed for an early grave   But that was long before you came to me      Now I'm livin' for you, every day of my life   I wanna be by your side   Each and every night   'Til the dawn's early light      Everything has changed   You take away my pain   I got a reason to live, it's the love that you give   I'm livin' for you      I used to be a ramblin' run around honky tonk fool   I like to spend my life every night on an old bar stool   I tried to drink all the whiskey I could   Everybody said I was no good   But then you shined your light into my life      Now I'm livin' for you, every day of my life   I wanna be by your side   Each and every night   'Til the dawn's early light      Everything has changed   You take away my pain   I got a reason to live, it's the love that you give   I'm livin' for you      I was runnin' on dangerous ground   Destination six feet down   But darlin', your sweet love has rescued me      Now I'm livin' for you, every day of my life   I wanna be by your side   Each and every night   'Til the dawn's early light      Everything has changed   You take away my pain   I got a reason to live, it's the love that you give   I'm livin' for you
