Because I Love You
Because I love you
Fixed the blinds to welcome light,
Always walks me through the night,
Because I love you.
Because I love you
Tucks me into clean white sheets,
Tells our story on repeat,
Because I love you.
Because I love you
Never lets me carry bags
Treats my love like it’s his flag
Because I love you.
Because I love you
Kisses me upon the cheek
Holds me tight when skies are bleak
Because I love you.
Because I love you
Sometimes makes me yell and cry
But never, ever says goodbye
Because I love you.
Because I love you
Doesn't ever leave a bruise
Doesn’t harm me or abuse
Because I love you.
Because I love you
Doesn’t hurt me with his words
Doesn’t keep mistake records
Because I love you
Because I love you
Doesn’t ever tell a lie
Doesn’t alter or disguise
Because I love you
Because I love you
Lights a fire on colder days
Burns to keep our love ablaze
Because I love you
