"Vivo per lei" [ˈviːvo per ˈlɛi] (English: "I Live for Her") is a 1995 song recorded by Italian artist Andrea Bocelli as duet with Italian singer Georgia, released in his album Bocelli. The song was also released as a duet with other female artists, including Marta Sánchez in Spanish and Latin American countries; Hélène Ségara in francophone countries; Judy Weiss in German-speaking countries; Sandy in Brazilian Portuguese;[1] and Bonnie Tyler in English under the title "Live for Love", though due to record company disputes their version was never released. The English version of the song was performed with Heather Headley and was released on Bocelli's live album Vivere Live in Tuscany.

The version with Marta Sánchez, titled "Vivo por ella", was included on her album One Step Closer, which peaked at number two in Panama, and number eight in the US Billboard Tropical Songs. This version of the song was also used as the opening theme for the Mexican telenovela Vivo Por Elena. The version with Hélène Ségara was released in December 1997 and became a hit in Belgium (Wallonia) and France, where it reached number one on the charts. It was the fifth single from Ségara's first studio album, Cœur de verre. The version with Judy Weiss also topped the charts in Switzerland in 1997.

A new version was released in August 2024 this time with Colombian artist Karol G and the track is part of Andrea Bocelli’s 2024 album called “Duets” celebrating his 30 years of sharing his music with the world.
