Because I Love You
Loving you was like coming up for air
My whole life I wondered if loving someone felt like drowning
I feared what heartbreak felt like
I never wanted to experience cold feet, pressure or sinking when I should swim
You came along and changed the game for me
It was fast and probably at the wrong time,
But how could something so wrong, feel so right
Now I am ready to leap
Now more than ever, I am ready to take risks
Love shouldn't be so scary that you become ok with living without it
Because of you I can trust without question
Loving you was like coming up for air…
Air I didn't know I needed, but so glad I found.
