I'd Do Anything for Love (But I Won't Do That) Songtext
von Meat Loaf

And I would do anything for love
I′d run right into hell and back
Oh, I would do anything for love
I'll never lie to you and that′s a fact
But I'll never forget the way you feel right now
Oh, no, no way

And I would do anything for love
Oh, I would do anything for love
Oh, I would do anything for love
But I won't do that, oh
No, I won′t do that

And some days, it don′t come easy
And some days it don't come hard
Some days it don′t come at all
And these are the days that never end
And some nights you're breathing fire
And some nights you′re carved in ice
Some nights are like nothing I've ever seen before
Or will again


And maybe I′m crazy
Oh, it's crazy and it's true
I know you can save me
No one else can save me now but you
As long as the wheels are turning
As long as the fires are burning
As long as your dreams are coming true
You better believe it

That I would do anything for love
And you know it′s true, and that′s a fact
Oh, I would do anything for love
And there'll never be no turning back
But I′ll never do it better than I do it with you, so long, so long
And I would do anything for love
And I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
Oh, oh, but I won't, oh, I won′t do that
Oh, I won't do -

I would do anything for love
Anything you′ve been dreaming of
But I just won't do that
I would do anything for love
Anything you've been dreaming of
But I just won′t do that
I would do anything for love
Anything you′ve been dreaming of
But I just won't do that


I would do anything for love
Anything you′ve been dreaming of
But I just won't do that
I would do anything for love
Anything you′ve been dreaming of
But I just won't do that
I would do anything for love
Anything you′ve been dreaming of
But I just won't do that

But I'll never stop dreaming of you, oh, every night of my life
No way
And I would do anything for love
Oh, I would do anything for love
Oh, I would do anything for love
Oh, but I won′t do that
Oh, I won′t do that

Will you raise me up? Will you help me down?
Will you get me right out of this Godforsaken town?
Can you make it all a little less cold?
I can do that
Oh, I can do that

Will you hold me sacred? Will you hold me tight?
Can you colorize my life, I'm so sick of black and white?
Can you make it all a little less old?
I can do that
Oh, I can do that

Will you make me some magic with your own two hands?
Can you build an emerald city with these grains of sand?
Can you give me something I can take home?
Oh, I can do that
I can do that

Will you cater to every fantasy I got?
Will you hose me down with holy water if I get too hot? Hot!
Would you take me places I′ve never known?
Oh, I can do that
Oh, I can do that

After a while, you'll forget everything
It was a brief interlude and a midsummer night′s fling
And you'll see that it′s time to move on
Oh, I won't do that
Hell, no, I won't do that

I know the territory, I′ve been around
It′ll all turn to dust, and we'll all fall down
Sooner or later, you′ll be screwing around
I won't do that
No, I won′t do -

Anything for love
Oh I, I would do anything for love
Oh, I would do anything, oh-oh, for love
But I won't do that
No, I won′t, oh, do that
