You never know what tomorrow may bring 
The woman lyin' next to you 
Could be a memory
I've idolized, I've memorized your face
Just in case I need it to last for eternity 
It's a shame that it ain't enough for me 

Life's for the living, I won't be giving up
'Cause you taught me how to, you taught me how to love 
Take all I cherish, beat me 'til my body's numb 
But, life's for the living, I won't be giving up
On you
On you
On you 
On you 

I should have known, should have tried to hold on

And never left your heart where it don't belong 
If the wind would change, bring you back again, my love 
Come Hell or high water, we will rise above 
You are what I believe in
You are enough 

Life's for the living, I won't be giving up
You taught me how to, you taught me how to love 
Take all I cherish, beat me 'til my body's numb 
But life's for the living, I won't be giving up
On you
On you
On you 
On you 

Even though, I know you'd tell me to
