Just for You (feat. Billy Currington) Lyrics

Golden days, life was play
Pain was all a world away
We went to school, we learned the rules
We trusted all they had to say
Then life took a turn
We all had to learn
And we can't go back again

And my heart is breaking
Just for you, just for you
And my arms are open
Just for you, just for you
Just for you

God was god and dreams were dreams
Life was all cake and ice cream
Truth was true and lies were lies
We thought love would never die
But the world moved on
My illusion's gone
And I don't know who to blame

And my heart is breaking
Just for you, just for you
And my arms are open
Just for you, just for you
And these tears I'm crying
Are for you, just for you
Just for you

I'm looking for protection
Give me shelter from the storm
I just hope this light inside me
Keeps me strong

And my heart is breaking
Just for you, just for you
And my arms, they're open
Just for you, just for you
And these tears I'm crying
Are for you, just for you
Just for you
Just for you

Oh, these tears I'm crying
Are just for you
Oh, I feel like crying
Just for you

Oh, my heart is breaking (my heart is breaking)
And my arms are open (and my arms are open)
Oh, these tears I'm crying (these tears I'm crying)
They're just for you (are just for you)
Oh, just for you (my heart is breaking)

Lionel Brockman Richie, Jr. (born June 20, 1949 in Tuskegee, Alabama) is an American R&B singer, songwriter, composer, and occasional actor. He got his start as the front man for the Commodores, a nationally popular Motown band during the 70's. They had several hits such as Easy, Three Times A Lady, and probably the Commodores' most famous hit, Brick House.

Richie quit the band in 1981 for a solo career. He released his self-titled debut in 1982. The album hit No. 3 on the charts and sold over 4 million copies. His follow up album, Can't Slow Down, sold over twice as many copies and won the Grammy for Album of the Year in '84. His third album, '86's Dancing on the Ceiling spawned such hits as Say You, Say Me, Dancing on the Ceiling, and Se La, but would be the end of his commercial success.

His 90's albums such as Back to Front, Louder Than Words, and Time all failed to achieve the previous decade's commercial success. Some of his recent work, such as the album Renaissance, has returned to his older style, hoping to achieve more success. Read more on Last.fm.
