For love alone, I did what otherwise I never could have done   Though if I lost a race or two, I should have won   And aimed a few too many arrows at the sun, it has been fun      When I was sure how very steep the price can be when love goes wrong   I held my hasty hardened check but not for long   Somehow I never could resist that siren song      If some dark day, I wake to find the love I felt was here to stay   Has slipped away   I'll simply say, these are the breaks, one makes mistakes      I bought the lies but now I'm wise   And from the ashes like the Phoenix I will rise   And sail the skies for nothing dies that flies for love alone      But now I'm wise   And from the ashes like the Phoenix I will rise   And sail the skies for nothing dies that flies for love alone      For love alone
