Would You Die For Me
Would you die for me?
If I was your love, your only love
and your love was true
Would you die for me? And...
Would I die for you?
If I was your father, the only one
the one who caused your birth
Would you die for me? (if you had to)
Am I of such priceless worth?
If I was your mother, the only one
the one who gave you birth
Would you die for me?(if you had to)
Am I of such priceless worth?
If I was your child, your only one
the one you caused to birth
Would you sacrifice it all for me?(I don't tell you)
Am I of such priceless worth?
If I was your country, the only one
the place and origin of your birth
Would you sacrifice your life for me?(if I asked)
Am I of such priceless worth?
If I was your God, your only one
the one who gave you your life
the one who gave you my only begotten son
does it mean anything, my sacrifice?
