Because of Love Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Because of love, I'm a hundred feet tall
I can bounce this world like a little old ball
Well, heaven and earth are now all mine
I've jumped to the moon from cloud number nine
Because, because, because, because of love

[Verse 2]
Because of love, I'm a mighty big man
I hold the sun in the palm of my hand
Just one leap I can cross the seas
Jump over mountains and fly over trees
Because, because, because, because of love
(Because of love)

[Bridge]
Well, I found love, I found love
At all that I can say
Oh, I'll never, never, I'll never, never
Never let it get away

[Verse 3]
Because of love, I'm the happiest guy
And life is sweet as cherry cream pie
Well, heaven and earth are now all mine
I've jumped to the moon from cloud number nine
Because, because, because, because of love
Because, because, because, because of love

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 [?]
