I Would Die 4 U
Space Cowboy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I'm not a woman, I'm not a man
I am something that you'll never understand
I'll never beat you, I'll never lie
And if you're evil, I'll forgive you by and by

'Cause you, I would die for you, yeah
Darling, if you want me to
You, I would die for you


I'm not your lover, I'm not your friend
I am something that you'll never comprehend
No need to worry, no need to cry
I'm your messiah and you're the reason why


'Cause you, I would die for you, yeah
Darling, if you want me to
You, I would die for you


You're just a sinner I am told
Be your fire when you're cold
Make you happy when you're sad
Make you good when you are bad


I'm not a human, I am a dove
I'm your conscious, I am love
All I really need is to know that
You believe


Yeah, I would die for you, yeah
Darling, if you want me to
You, I would die for you
Yeah, say one more time


You, I would die for you
Darling, if you want me to
You, I would die for you
2, 3, 4, you


I would die for you
I would die for you




You, I would die for you
You, I would die for you
