Lyrics
Live For You (C) 2004 Jennifer Mangum BMI and Julie Layne Bloeth ASCAP music/vocals: Julie Layne Bloeth I was your pigtailed beauty queen You've always lived your life for me Anything I’d ever need You'd find a way to give to me You've always worked from nine to five Always put your own life to the side Life is short but you didn't care When I think back it doesn't seem fair Mama will you please take a bow I'm asking you right here and now To... (Chorus) Live for you Take some time Do what you've always wanted to Just know that I'll be fine Let’s trade places for awhile Jump into the sun, explore the moon Whatever makes you smile Live for you Daddy has been a lucky man Cause you try as hard as you can To keep his house a happy home Made sure he was never alone I know he would have to agree You are the rock in our family If it weren't for you all these years And all your blood, sweat and tears We wouldn't be who we are But now you need to reach for the stars And... (Repeat Chorus 2nd) changed line "Just know that we'll be fine" I can't thank you enough for everything You are the reason that I succeed But I know you've got some hidden dreams So chase them down and don't worry about me And....
