Lyrics

Ev’ryone has a mission in life
A purpose, an aim, an ambition in life
Something they believe they can achieve
If they try, yes
Ev’ryone has a mission in life
So do I

Refrain
To love you, I only live to love you
You smiled and made my blue world
A world of dreams come true
To love you, I place no one above you
What joy it is to know you
To know you love me too
When you’re in my arms
Ev’ry kiss that we share is a prayer
And a vow that we will go on
On and on for as long as the Lord will allow
For ever so proudly I will say
I will only live to love you
The way I do right now
