And I would do anything for love
I'd run right into hell and back
I would do anything for love
I'll never lie to you and that's a fact
But I'll never forget the way you feel right now
Oh no - no way
R: I would do anything for love (Repeat 3x)
I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
But I won't do that
No I won't do that
And some days it don't come easy
and some days it don't come hard
Some days it don't come at all and
these are the days that never end
And some nights you're breathing fire and
some days you're carved in ice
Some days you're like nothing I've ever
seen before or will again
And maybe I'm crazy, oh it's crazy and it's true
I know you can save me no one else can save me now but you
As long as the planets are turning,
as long as the stars are burning
As long as your dreams are comong true, you better believe me
That I would do anything for love,
and I'll be there 'till the final act
I would do anything for love,
and I take a vow and seal a pact
But I'll never forgive myself if we don't go all the way - tonight
R: I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
But I won't do that
No I won't do that
I would do anything for love, anything you've been dreaming of
But I just won't do that (repeat 2x)
And somedays I pray for silence,
somedays I pray for soul
Somedays I just pray for the god of
Sex and Drugs and Rock'n'Roll
Some nights I lose the feeling,
some nights I lose control
Some nights I just lose it all when I
watch you dance and the thunder rolls
Maybe I'm lonely and that's all I'm qualified to be
There's just one and only, the one and only promise I can keep
As long as the wheels are turning,
as long as the fires are burning
As long as your prayers are coming true, you better believe it!
That I would do anything for love,
and you know it's true and that's a fact
I would do anything for love,
and there never be no turning back
But I'll never do it better than I do it with you,
so long - so long
R: I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
But I won't do that
No I won't do that
I would do anything for love, anything you've been dreaming of
But I just won't do that ... (repeat 2x)
But I never stop dreaming of you every night of my life - no way
R: I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
But I won't do that
No I won't do that
Will you raise me up, will you help me down
Will you get me right out of this godforsaken town
Will you make it all a little less cold
I can do that, I can do that !
Will you hold me sacred, will you hold me tight
Can you colorize my life I'm so sick of black and white
Can you make it all a little less old
I can do that, I can do that !
Will you make me some magic with your own two hands
Can you build an emerald city with this grains of sand
Can you give me something I can take home
I can do that, I can do that !
Will you cater to every fantasy I got,
will you hose me down with holy water - if I get to hot
Will you take me to places I've never known
I can do that, I can do that !
After a while you forget everything,
it was a brief interlude and a midsummernights fling,
and you see that it's time to move on
I won't do that, I won't do that !
I know the territory, I've been around
It'll all turn to dust and we'll all fall down
And sooner or later, you'll be screwing around
I won't do that, I won't do that !
Anything for love
I would do anything for love
I would do anything for love
But I won't do that
No I won't do that

About this song: I'd Do Anything For Love (but I Won't Do That)
From the album Bat Out of Hell 2, the album that brought Meat Loaf back to fame in the '90s, this song was a massive hit and topped the chart around the globe.Unconventionally 12 minutes long. Perceived ambiguity of "that" Each verse mentions two things that he would do for love, followed by one thing that he will not do. The title phrase repetition reasserts that he "won't do that" previously stated one thing. Each mention of "that" is an anaphoric reference to the particular promise that he made earlier in the same verse.
