For your love
For your love

(For your love)
I'd give you everything and more and that's for sure
(For your love)
I'd bring you diamond rings and things right to your door
(For your love)
To thrill you with delight
I'd give you diamonds bright
There'll be days I will excite
They'll make you dream of me at night

For your love
For your love
For your love

For your love
For your love
I would give the stars above
For your love
For your love
I would give you all I could

For your love
For your love

(For your love)
I'd give the moon if it were mine to give
(For your love)
I'd give the stars and the sun for I live
(For your love)
To thrill you with delight
I'd give you diamonds bright
There'll be days I will excite
They'll make you dream of me at night

For your love
For your love




For your love
For your love

Overall Meaning

The Yardbirds's song For Your Love is a love song about the lengths someone would go to for the person they love. The lyrics constantly repeat the phrases "For your love" and "I'd give you everything and more," emphasizing the depth and intensity of the singer's passion. The verses describe the material possessions and gifts he would offer to his lover in order to show his love and make them happy. He would give them diamonds, stars, and the moon if he could, and he promises to thrill them with delight and be the object of their dreams at night. The chorus reinforces this commitment, repeating that he would do anything for their love, and the song ends with one final declaration of his devotion.


The use of material possessions as symbols of love and devotion has been a common trope in popular music for decades, but For Your Love takes it to an extreme. The lyrics of the song suggest that the singer is willing to give up anything and everything for their love, even the things that are typically beyond anyone's control or ownership (such as the moon and the stars). It's a universal theme that many people can relate to, appealing to anyone who has ever felt the all-encompassing power of love.
