Because I Love You


I did not mean to hurt you, but you can not leave me

Because I love you

This time I will change, It is all different now

Because I love you

Yet time and time again it happens, but everytime the excuse was

Because I love you

And finally I had the strength and told him

Because I love myself

Now a year later and I find myself in the arms of another man

Because I love myself

Moving on and forgetting is for the best

Because I love myself

With the best man I could have wished for, and I say I do

Because I love you
