Living for you is easy living
It’s easy to live when you’re in love
And I’m so in love
There is nothing in life but youI never regret the years that I’m giving
They’re easy to give when you’re in love
I’m happy to do whatever I do for you,For you
Maybe I’m a fool but it’s fun
People say you rule me with one wave of your hand
Darling it’s grand
They just don’t understandLiving for you is easy living
It’s easy to live when you’re in love
And I’m so in love
There’s nothing in life but you

Living for you is easy living
It’s easy to live when you’re in love
And I’m so in love
There is nothing in life but youI’ll never regret the things I’m giving
They’re easy to give when you’re in love
I’m happy to do whatever I do for youFor you maybe I’m a fool
But it’s fun
People say you rule me with one
Wave of your hand
Darling it’s grand
They just don’t understandLiving for you is easy living
It’s easy to live when you’re in love
And I’m so in love
There’s nothing in life but youFor you maybe I’m a fool
But it’s fun
People say you rule me with one
Wave of your hand
Baby it’s grand
They just don’t understandLiving for you is easy living
It’s easy to live when you’re in love
And I’m so in love
There’s nothing in life but you
