The song reached number 13 on the U. S. Billboard Hot 100 during the winter of 1988. It was a major Adult Contemporary and R&B hit, reaching number two and number four on those charts, respectively.

Stand up, stand on your own, that's what they tell me
You can make it alone, but where does it say I have to move
Far away from you to prove I'm strong 
Oh when all it really proves is I'm lonely without you
And loneliness has to be wrong

I live for your love (everyday), every minute
I live for your love (in my life), want you in it
I live for your love, I admit it, I live for your love

I wake up with no one to kiss, sometimes I wonder (wonder, wonder) 
If I just exist, I know there are people I can see
Places I could be, and friends who call
Oh but what good does it do, there's no substitute for you
I want you or nothing at all

I live for your love (every day), every minute
I live for your love (in my life), want you in it
I live for your love, I admit it

I live for your love and your kisses, and know how I'm missing 
Your sweet tender touch (tender touch), I need you so much
That I just can't go on anymore, what I wouldn't give for
'Cause darling

I live for your love (everyday), every minute
I live for your love (got one life) want you in it
I live for your love, I hate to admit it, but oh, I live for, I'd die for

What I wouldn't give for your love (every day)
I live for your love, (got one life) every day, every minute
(I live for your love) I have only got one life, I want you in it
Oh, my baby, yes, yes, I live for your love, ooh, ooh
