Because I Love You
Because I Love You
A dark circle under your eye,
Sorry, darling, you mustn't cry.
I had to,
Because I love you.
A broken glass, a shattered dish
You know I didn’t want a kiss
I had to,
Because I love you.
A long-sleeved shirt and long pants,
You must hide my angry rants.
I had to,
Because I love you.
"Because I love you" is in disguise,
When love creates anger, fear, and lies,
It’s not because I love you,
It’s because I own you.
Rosy cheeks and a smiling face,
To hold you in my warm embrace.
I want to,
Because I love you.
A happy place not far away,
I can take you there every day.
I want to,
Because I love you.
A reminder through a simple act,
I will always keep this loving pact.
I want to,
Because I love you.
Because I love you is truly honest,
When love is powerful, warm, and earnest.
Its because I love you,
Because I don’t want to be without you.
