Make It Last For Life
US5 Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I can see you cryin' baby
You're the best thing in my life
I don't want us fighting cause it's
Tearin' up my mind
I don't wanna loose you in my life
You're the reason why I'm hurting deep inside
I'm gonna make it last for life
All good things in life
Have just all over sudden kind of gone away from me
Girl I've tried hard to slip by every word I said
I had to think of you in my mind

Now I can find anyone who's right
I used to think I let you go
I've come to realize, oh

I can't see you cryin' baby
You're the best thing in my life
I don't want us fighting cause it's
Tearin' up my mind
I don't wanna loose you in my life
You're the reason why I'm hurting deep inside
I'm gonna make it last for life

No space to hide
From the feelings overcoming me in bed at night
Out of sight, ain't out of mind
Because even though you were not here
You laid by my side

And all that I see
Is a vision of light leading bright
To the one that I used to adore




Don't leave me stranded girl, I'm waiting
Oh baby baby baby yeah
