Richard & Linda Thompson - Died For Love lyrics

I'm wishing and waiting Down on the shoreline Oh tell me, lover When will you be mine Sail my ship on the ocean I'll sail to some far place And I'll inquire of every captain Oh have you seen her face? I'd give my life to be with you And if they ask about me And if they ask about me Oh say that I died I died for love Trouble and worry Why should it mess up your mind It's nothing, it's just shadows That you will leave behind What is my life without trouble If I'm away from you Oh I will love you forever 'Till you love me and I love you I'd give my life to be with you And if they ask about me And if they ask about me Oh say that I died I died for love Well true love, the real thing It don't come easy And giving and searching It don't come easy Of all the flowers in the forest Of all the birds in the air Of all the j**els and treasures Oh how can they compare I'd give my life to be with you And if they ask about me And if they ask about me Oh say that I died I died for love Say that I died I died for love And say that I died I died for love
