I Would Die for You Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You are everything to me
And I, I would die for you
There've been times where I'm up all night
Crying in the dark, so I sleep with the light on
I've heard I've got words like a knife
That I don't know how to choose just so wisely
But I see trees and their colored leaves
When I think about all that we could be

[Chorus]
When you're gone, time moves so slow
Like the grass, I've watched us grow
I've heard you reap only what you'll sow
How could I never let you know?

[Verse 2]
That you are everything to me
You're sweeter than candy
And better than any childhood dreams
I am yours and you are mine
I have your heart, I don't even need a ring
I'd give up all I have in exchange
For who I love more than anything

[Chorus]
When you're gone, time moves so slow
Like the grass, I've watched us grow
I've heard you reap only what you'll sow
How could I ever let you know?
[Bridge]
'Cause you, you're everything to me
And I, I would die for you
Yeah, I would die for you

[Chorus]
When you're gone time, moves so slow (I would die for you)
Like the grass, I've watched us grow (I would die)
I've heard you reap only what you'll sow (I would die for you)
How could I never let you know I would die for you?

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

I Would Die For You is the 6th track on Miley Cyrus' 6th studio album “Younger Now”.

Sonically, the record is a mellow country-pop song.

Lyrically, the song is about a relationship Cyrus had. She’s likely referring to Liam Hemsworth, as the lyrics “Like the grass, I’ve watched us grow” insinuates they have been romantically linked for a while.
