I'm ecstatic, I feel the magic, It's everlasting
I think that you were meant to be alive on this very night
With me, I see, it clearly
The dream you hear about
And never truly think it's realistic till it blows your mind
I never thought I could understand
I was searching me
And now I finally see

I see that some people fight for love
They stick with it, just can't quit it
Some people hide from love, they run from it, cause they don't want it
When you got a love and it's good like it should be
Makes you never wanna give it up
Cause you know that some people die for love
And I believe it's true cause I'd do the same for you

You're the reason, the air I'm breathing, so don't go leaving,
Cause loving you is the only thing that ever really touched my soul
I'm protective, of my blessings
Glad I kept it, I never really thought about the future till I saw my life
Finding it's purpose, so very worth it
And now I know that love is really worth it

And that's why some people fight for love
They stick with it, just can't quit it
Some people hide from love, they run from it, cause they don't want it
When you got a love and it's good like it should be
Makes you never wanna give it up
Cause you know that some people die for love
And I believe it's true cause I'd do the same for you

It's hard to be, and good to keep
And once you're with it, it's hard to leave
You can't help but run wild with imagination
It'll change your life from wrong or right
And then you touch, touch the sky, and now I
Don't see how I made it through the night
But I see how there's some people who fight

Some people fight for love
They stick with it, just can't quit it
Some people hide from love, they run from it, cause they don't want it
When you got a love and it's good like it should be
Makes you never wanna give it up
Cause you know that some people die for love
And I believe it's true cause I'd do the same for you

Some people fight for love,
(I don't wanna do it no more)
Some people hide from love,
(It just feels so good)
But when you got a love and it's good like it should be
Makes you never wanna give it up cause you know that,
Some people fight for love
