They tell her she's too young To be a mother to a child That she's only just begun To see what life's about They tell her don't be crazy He won't get married You get yourself a college degree But she can't deny it The babe inside her Is truly alive She says Because of Love I am willing to give it all up I am willing to take the plunge Because of Love The world will never understand That love is sacrifice It's more than just romance It's the reason for our lives So if they call me crazy And try to cage me To get me to betray the Truth Well I hope I'm ready To stand and carry My cross up and say Because of Love I am willing to give it all up I am willing to take the plunge Because of Love I am willing to humbly become Give my life to lift you up Because of Love I'm standing here with my heart held out I'm standing here to declare to the crowd That I love you, and I always will This promise that I make today I make forever more Because of Love I am willing to give it all up I am willing to take the plunge Because of Love I am willing to humbly become Give my life to lift you up Because of Love Because of Love Because of Love
