For The Love Of

from Au Sable by MEGA PIXEL

/

about

A conversation between two friends about how to navigate their independent love lives. When our relationships start getting serious, we tend to ask our friends what they think we should do. Sometimes they agree with our intentions and sometimes they don’t. No matter what they say though, we need to remember that whatever we do, we have to do it because it’s what we actually want. We have to follow what is in our hearts.

lyrics

Is it me or do the means not justify her ends?
I’m lovestruck, I’m dizzy
I get the bends
I diss my friends
I’m coming from the bottom from where I fell
Trying to get some air
I’m drowning in a swell of your long brown dishwater hair
I’m suffocating
Your intoxicating air
Is mesmerized, tractor beams
You’re my brown-eyed stare
Is it worth the struggle, my brother?
‘Cause my tank is on E
She gives me everything I want that I forget what I need
Singing

I do
I do what I do
I do
I do what I do
I do
Uh, I do what I do
I do
Uh, I do what I do
For the love of you
Ooh, for the love of you

Yo
Is it me
Or do my means not justify my ends
I’m trusting my ambition
Huh?
I know
Not again
No hesitation though
I’m bobbing my head
Wide awake and always saying I can sleep when I’m dead
I started downstream and swam up
Just to get knocked down in which I found laughter
Because I did something that I would be proud after
Effecting our affection that we shared with a passion
And you say you worry
Over my lack of a hurry
But I, don’t know what’s worse
Being thorough or being thirty
I know at first glance clarity can seem blurry
But if you calculate every single step, you’ll miss your journey, man

I do
I do what I do
I do
I do what I do
I do
Uh, I do what I do
I do
Uh, I do what I do
For the love of you
Ooh, for the love of you

Yeah

I do
I do what I do
I do
I do what I do
I do
Uh, I do what I do
I do
Uh, I do what I do
For the love of you
Ooh, for the love of you
