  • I had no life, I had no love
    I was a bug
    I had no mirror, wore dirty clothes
    Over and over
    The day I saw her my mind was set

    Ooh, I'll never forget
    I have not failed her yet
    I've got a reason now to live
    That love
    She's right here beside me
    We're high up above
    Yeah, I've got a reason now to live
    That love
    Oh, I've got a reason

    Oh it's the ultimate
    Ooh, it's the ultimate love

    I had to close the distance that
    Lay between us
    I had a plan that we elope
    Upon the jaws of death
    And with the roaring sea below

    With God as our witness
    It all began to hit us
    I began to take in
    The magical island intoxication

    I got a reason now to live
    That love
    She's right here beside me
    We're high up above
    Oh, I've got a reason now to live
    That love
    Oh, I've got a reason

    It's the ultimate
    Yeah, it's the ultimate
    That love, I know
    That love, that love
    That love, that love
    That love

    Love, love, love,
    That love, that love
    That love, that love
    That love Writer/s: DAVE NAVARRO, DUFF ROSE MCKAGAN, PERRY FARRELL, STEPHEN ANDREW PERKINS
