DIANA

Kiss today goodbye,

the sweetness and the sorrow.

Wish me luck, the same to you,

But I can't regret what I did for love, what I did for love.



Look my eyes are dry.

The gift was ours to borrow.

It's as if we always knew,

And I won't forget what I did for love, what I did for love.



Gone, love is never gone.

As we travel on, loves what we'll remember.



Kiss today goodbye,

And point me toward tomorrow.

We did what we had to do.

Won't forget, can't regret what I did for love.



ALL

What I did for love.
