The Great Gatsby the Musical - For Her Lyrics

The song is written by Jason Howland and Nathan Tysen.

GATSBY:
I’ve done it all for her
Put up each wall for her
All the plans I laid
All the options weighed
Every price I paid for her

I went to war for her
Braved foreign shore for her
Bottled up the guilt
Then I went full-tilt
Rivaled Vanderbilt for her

Daisy
You fight and return
Only to learn
That you have lost her
Daisy
My waiting is through
If you bring her to me
I’ll be indebted to you

I’ve come so far for her
The finest caviar for her
Everything I own
Every party thrown
All the nights alone for her

Daisy
She slipped through my hands
No one understands
How she has changed me
Daisy
I need one more chance
If you bring her to me
I will know at a glance

Do this good turn for me
And I can guarantee
When all is done I’ll be forever in your debt
This time I won’t let go
Help me to make it so
Try as one might you know that there is no forgetting her

Daisy
You fight and return
Only to learn
That you have lost her

Daisy
I need one more chance
Am I chasing a dream?
I will know at a glance

I’ve done it all for her
Put up each wall for her
Bucked the status quo
Just one piece to go
Now she has to know
It’s all for her
