The dream is fading; now I'm staring at the door
I know it's over 'cause my feet have hit the cold floor
Check my reflection; I ain't feelin' what I see
It's no mystery
Whatever happened to a passion I could live for?
What became of the flame that made me feel more?
And when did I forget that...

[Chorus]
I was made to love you
I was made to find you
I was made just for you
Made to adore you
I was made to love
And be loved by you
You were here before me
You were waiting on me
And you said you'd keep me
Never would you leave me 
I was made to love
And be loved by you

The dream's alive with my eyes opened wide
Back in the ring you've got me swinging for the grand prize
I feel the haters spittin' vapors on my dreams
But I still believe
I'm reachin' out, reachin' up, reachin' over
I feel a breeze cover me called Jehovah
And, daddy, I'm on my way
'Cause I was made to love

[Chorus]

I was made to love you
I was made just for you
Made to adore you
I was made to love
And be loved by you
You were here before me
You were waiting on me
And you said you'd keep me
Never would you leave me 
I was made to love
And be loved by you

(Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah)
(Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah)

Anything I would give up for you (nah, nah, nah, nah, nah)
Everything - I'd give it all away (nah, nah, nah, nah, nah)

Anything I would give up for you (nah, nah, nah, nah, nah)
Everything - I'd give it all away (nah, nah, nah, nah, nah)

Anything I would give up for you (nah, nah, nah, nah, nah)
Everything - I'd give it, I'd give it all away, oh yeah

'Cause I was made to love you (I was made to love you)
Yeah, I was made to love you (I was made to find you)
'Cause I was made to love you 
(I was made to adore you, made just for you, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah)
I was made to love you 
(I was made to adore you, made just for you)
'Cause I was made to love you 
(I was made to adore you, made just for you, nah, nah, nah, nah, nah)
I was made to love you (I was made to adore you)

Yeah, I'm loved by you
Yeah, I'm loved by you (nah, nah, nah, nah, nah)
Yeah, I' m loved by you (nah, nah, nah, nah, nah)
(Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah)
(Nah, nah, nah, nah, nah)
