#BeacauseILoveYou


Wanting to wake up every morning with you by my side

Now is that so bad?

Wanting to hold you close to me

Is it that hard?

Continously fighting then leaving the conversation before it's over

Where are you going?

Leaving every night and never responding

Are you still there?

But because I love you, because I care for you, because you're the one

I take it all in.

I don't blame you now, I do the same

But because I love you, I don't want to hold you,

Captive caged up in my heart.

Because I love you I don't want that to be holding you.

Because you love me you'll let go if you're not happy.

Because I love you I won't hold you back.

Because you love me, you won't let me suffocate in this love.
