Because I love you


Because I love you I set you free.

I'm twenty-five hundred miles away

Like this I can't bare to breath.

Asleep you are in my dreams

when I wake you are no longer there

It hurts to think of you the way we used to share

Our hopes and goals are in the past 

I turn to see but everything is too fast.

Living without you makes me ill 

I'm away against my own will

But if I have to I se you free

Because I love you.
