(Everything I Do) I Do It for You Lyrics

Look in to my eyes
You will see what you mean to me
Search your heart, search your soul
When you find me, then you’ll search no more
Don’t tell me it’s not worth trying for
You can’t tell me it’s not worth dying for
You know it’s true, everything I do I do it for you
Look in to your heart, you will find
There is nothing there to hide
Take me as I am, take my life
I would give it all, I would sacrifice
Don’t tell me it’s not worth fighting for
I can’t help it, there’s nothing I want more
You know it’s true, everything I do I do it for you
There is no love like your love
And no other could give me more love
There’s nowhere unless you’re there
All the time all the way
You can’t tell me it’s not worth trying for
I just can’t help it, there’s nothing in the world I want more
I would fight for you, I’d lie for you
You know it’s true
Everything I do I do it for you, oh

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.

Brandy did NOT write this! i hope you were joking... this was Bryan Adams' and his version was truly awesome. It's from Robin Hood and the really expensive Ford adverts in the UK, too.

I love this cover, but it in no way at all lives up to the Bryan Adams version. The way he did it was so perfect, because his tortured voice epitomised what the song is about, the pain of love. Brandy is excellent, don't get me wrong, and I think she covers this beautifully, but it's not as good as the original.
