I'd Lie for You (And That's the Truth) Lyrics

I'd never tell you one lie, I'd never let you down
I'd never leave, I'd be the one who'd always be around
Baby give me a chance
I'd pull the sun down from the sky to light your darkest night
I wouldn't let one drop of rain fall down into your life
Put your heart in my hands
Baby believe me I could never do you wrong
And I would never paint your world blue
And if sometimes it seems I must have lost my mind
I might be crazy, but I'm crazy about you

I'd lie for you and that's the truth
Do anything you asked me to
I'd even sell my soul for you
I'd do it all for you
If you'd just believe in me

Just take a look in my eyes, you'll see a love that's blind
Just take a hold of my hand, I'll take you to paradise
Ain't a star that's too far
Your every wish will be a wish that I will make come true
And if you want the moon I swear I'll bring it down for you
Let me into your heart
Believe me baby, got your name carved on my soul
'Cause you're the only one that I'll give it too
Go let'em say that I'm a fool to act this way
'Cause if I'm crazy, then I'm crazy 'bout you

And you will never see a day I'll ever break your heart
You'll see the sky fall down before it ever gets that far
I'll show you heaven every second that you're in my arms
Baby I'm crazy, but I'm crazy 'bout you

I'd lie for you and that's the truth
Do anything you asked me too
I'd even sell my soul for you
I'd do it all for you
If you'd just believe in me
I'd lie for you and that's the truth
Move mountains if you want me to
I'd walk across the fire for you
I'd walk on the wild for you
If you'd just believe in me
I'd lie for you and that's the truth
Do anything you asked me too
I'd even sell my soul for you
I'd do it all for you
If you'd just believe in me
I'd lie for you and that's the truth
Move mountains if you want me to
I'd walk across the fire for you
I'd walk on the wild for you
If you'd just believe in me
I'd lie for you and that's the truth

I'd Do Anything for Love (But I Won't Do That)

Bat Out Of Hell

Paradise by the Dashboard Light

Two Out Of Three Ain't Bad

Objects in the Rear View Mirror May Appear Closer Than They Are

I'd never tell you one lie, I'd never let you down
 I'd never leave, I'd be the one who'd always be around
 Baby give me a chance
 I'd pull the sun down from the sky to light your darkest night
 I wouldn't let one drop of rain fall down into your life
 Put your heart in my hands
 Baby believe me I could never do you wrong
 And I would never paint your world blue
 And if sometimes it seems I must have lost my mind
 I might be crazy, but I'm crazy about you

I'd lie for you and that's the truth
 Do anything you asked me to
 I'd even sell my soul for you
 I'd do it all for you
 If you'd just believe in me

Just take a look in my eyes, you'll see a love that's blind
 Just take a hold of my hand, I'll take you to paradise
 Ain't a star that's too far
 Your every wish will be a wish that I will make come true
 And if you want the moon I swear I'll bring it down for you
 Let me into your heart
 Believe me baby, got your name carved on my soul
 'Cause you're the only one that I'll give it too
 Go let'em say that I'm a fool to act this way
 'Cause if I'm crazy, then I'm crazy 'bout you

And you will never see a day I'll ever break your heart
 You'll see the sky fall down before it ever gets that far
 I'll show you heaven every second that you're in my arms
 Baby I'm crazy, but I'm crazy 'bout you

I'd lie for you and that's the truth
 Do anything you asked me too
 I'd even sell my soul for you
 I'd do it all for you
 If you'd just believe in me
 I'd lie for you and that's the truth
 Move mountains if you want me to
 I'd walk across the fire for you
 I'd walk on the wild for you
 If you'd just believe in me
 I'd lie for you and that's the truth
 Do anything you asked me too
 I'd even sell my soul for you
 I'd do it all for you
 If you'd just believe in me
 I'd lie for you and that's the truth
 Move mountains if you want me to
 I'd walk across the fire for you
 I'd walk on the wild for you
 If you'd just believe in me
 I'd lie for you and that's the truth

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.

This song is just so inspiring and beautiful. It´s all about a person that loves another person so much that he just want the other´s world to be perfect. Ain´t it?

This has to be one of the most beautiful songs ever written. No one can capture the kind of feeling Meatloaf can, his voice is fricking amazing.

This song means a lot to me, it reminds me of my relationship with my girlfriend.

I recently started talking to a girl...and in the first days, she and I have said how we will never lie or cheat if we decide to date. Its one of the most heartfelt songs that I have ever heard. I am a song writer, and I want a song just like this.
