Because I Love You


Because I love you

I know I can wake up everyday

And live wonderfully

Because I want to see you in the world

 

Because I love you

I am not scared to be free

I fear no man

Because your strength carries me

 

Because I love you

I make myself better

I try my best every day

Because I want to make you proud

 

Because I love you

I see the beauty in small things

In eyes, smiles, laughter

Because everything about you is endearing

 

Because I love you

I can speak the truth

I never utter lies

Because you won't let me

 

Because I love you

I've learned to love myself

Something about me must be good

Because you love me

 

Because you love me

I know I'm not perfect

But maybe I'm close enough

Because you still love me
