All I Do For You


I stay up at night wondering if you got home okay, 

When it gets late out I insist you stay 

I listen, understand and give advice when I can, 

Hurting you will never be a part of my plan 

When I don't have the words to comfort, I use my arms instead, 

Those "I love you's" will never go unsaid 

I try to understand and not get upset, 

Because this love I could never regret 

I insist we work through our issues, 

Even if it may take some tissues 

I'm honest with you, 

Even if it may reveal the skeletons in my closet 

I want the best for you, even if I am not it, 

And you deserve the world even if you don't admit it 

I care about what you are going through, 

And this is all because I love you
