I Was Born to Love You Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You give me a sign
You give me a lift
You take me home when I've done my shift

You give me a loan
When I'm stone cold broke
Get me high, when I need a toke

[Chorus]
I was born to love
I was born to love
I was born to love
I was born to

[Verse 2]
Times were tough
We made it through
We tasted the rough
So let's save the spoon

All the time I was hurtin' you
Got to believe that I was hurtin' too

[Chorus]
I was born to love
I was born to
Born to love
I was born to

[Bridge]
Your the only one I can talk to
The only one I can really read
I know you give because you want to
Don't you think it's time you learned to let yourself receive?

[Verse 3]
Can make you smile
Can make you sing
Just wanna give back a lil bit of what you give me

I could sing you a song
Play you a tune
I know its just a little thing but it's something I can do

[Chorus]
I was born to love
I was born to
I was a-born to love
I was born to

[Outro]
I was born
To love you

I was born
To love you

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
