Born to Make You Happy Lyrics

[Intro]
Oh, my love
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah

[Verse 1]
I'm sittin' here alone up in my room
And thinkin' 'bout the times that we've been through
Oh, my love
I'm lookin' at a picture in my hand
Trying my best to understand
I really wanna know what we did wrong
With a love that felt so strong

[Pre-Chorus]
If only you were here tonight
I know that we could make it right

[Chorus]
I don't know how to live without your love
I was born to make you happy
'Cause you're the only one within my heart
I was born to make you happy
Always and forever, you and me
That's the way our life should be
I don't know how to live without your love
I was born to make you happy

[Verse 2]
I know I've been a fool since you've been gone
I'd better give it up and carry on
Oh, my love
'Cause livin' in a dream of you and me
Is not the way my life should be
I don't wanna cry a tear for you
So forgive me if I do (Ooh)

[Pre-Chorus]
If only you were here tonight
I know that we could make it right

[Chorus]
I don't know how to live without your love
I was born to make you happy
'Cause you're the only one within my heart
I was born to make you happy
Always and forever, you and me
That's the way our life should be
I don't know how to live without your love
I was born to make you happy

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, yeah, yeah
Oh, yeah

[Bridge]
I'd do anything
I'd give you my world
I'd wait forever to be your girl
(Just call out my name) Just call out my name
(And I will be there) And I will be there (Ooh)
Just to show you how much I care
Alright (Ooh)
I was born to make you happy (Ooh)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, oh, oh (Ooh)
Oh, yeah

[Chorus]
I don't know how to live without your love
I was born to make you happy
'Cause you're the only one within my heart
I was born to make you happy
Always and forever, you and me
That's the way our life should be
I don't know how to live without your love
I was born to make you happy

[Outro]
(Oh no)
I was born to make you happy
(Oh yeah, oh, oh yeah)
Always and forever, you and me
That's the way our life should be
I don't know how to live without your love
I was born to make you happy
