Lyrics
Last night I asked you if you loved me
I saw the answer in your eyes
I was hopin? I could change you
But what I heard was no surprise
I know you?re trying to be gentle
Never thought you were unkind
I know what you?re thinking baby
Now I?ll lay it on the line
CHORUS
I was in it for the love
But you had something different on your mind
I was in it for the love
And you were only wasting time
Now I realize I?m a dreamer
I would never hold you down
All you wanted was your freedom baby
But I still want you around
CHORUS
Bridge
I?ll fall in love with someone
Who will give the love I need
Don?t ask why, just say goodbye
But I?ll be crying when I leave
CHORUS
I was in it for the love
But you had something different on your mind
I was in it for the love
And you were only wasting time
TAG
I need somebody
Someone to love me
Cause I was in it for the love
Turn around and see me crying
