Born To Make You Happy

Britney Spears

Oh, my love
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah

I'm sitting here alone up in my room
I'm thinking 'bout the times that we've been through, oh, my love
I'm looking at a picture in my hand
Trying my best to understand
I really wanna know what we did wrong
With a love that felt so strong

If only you were here tonight
I know that we could make it right

I don't know how to live without your love
I was born to make you happy
'Cause you're the only one within in my heart
I was born to make you happy
Always and forever, you and me
That's the way our life should be
I don't know how to live without your love
I was born to make you happy

I know I've been a fool since you've been gone
I'd better give it up and carry on, oh, my love
'Cause living in a dream of you and me
Is not the way my life should be
I don't want to cry a tear for you
So forgive me if I do (Ooh)

If only you were here tonight
I know that we could make it right

I don't know how to live without your love
I was born to make you happy
'Cause you're the only one within in my heart
I was born to make you happy
Always and forever, you and me
That's the way our life should be
I don't know how to live without your love
I was born to make you happy

(Oh yeah)
(Oh yeah)
I'd do anything
I'd give you my world
I'd wait forever to be your girl (Just call out my name)
Just call out my name (and I will be there) and I will be there (Ooh)
Just to show you how much I care (Alright, ooh)
I was born to make you happy, yeah (Ooh, ooh yeah)

I don't know how to live without your love
I was born to make you happy
'Cause you're the only one within in my heart
I was born to make you happy
Always and forever, you and me
That's the way our life should be
I don't know how to live without your love
I was born to make you happy

I was born to make you happy
(Oh yeah, oh, oh yeah)
Always and forever, you and me
That's the way our life should be
I don't know how to live without your love
I was born to make you happy

    "this song is the epitome of purile, inane sickening love songs, sung by a 16yr old virgin who doesnt kno jack about love. this song is disgustingly sugary and repulsive " What does it matter if she was a virgin? You don't have to had sexual experiences to know what love is. I should know! Sorry if I'm taking what you said wrong but it sounded like you were implying that because the singers a virgin, she doesn't know anything about love. Which to be fair is just a little bit rediculous/insulting!

    obviously everyone bashing on this song has never been in love before. you don't know what love feels like or realize how intense and strong it is. i totally understand how britney could sing a song like this.

    i hate songs like this. those "you've left me however will i survive" songs. and "i was born to make you happy"? um...i'm sorry, i think higher of myself than that. but when i was 12 i probably would have liked this song.

    Honestly.... the only person I was born to make happy is ME! I'm nobody's slave and I think that waiting on someone is below me, I have integrity, infuckingtegrity. So to say you can't live without a guy.... that would suck cuz when you let yourself get totally dependant on a guy, you know you have a problem....... I recommend the writer of this song seek a therapist and realsie that they are their own person and dont have to depend on anyone

    ok i know theres a definite difference between pop music and punk, but just because you think you're so "punk" doesn't mean you can ONLY listen to punk music and same with pop music...and green hilighter....don't take the song so seriously, calm down, I think when you get dumped or break up with someone you cared about so much you kind of feel the same way
