Because I Love You


You were there for me in those hot summer days

Those days where I thought I would just fade away

Waiting for the day where my best friend would say

"I'm here,"

But she was never there

She didn't care, she didn't listen

But you; you listened

I couldn't believe my luck, that you this boy this friend

Someone whose friendship I should've brought to an end

You, my best friend's ex

Were more than just a friend

You loved and cared for me when my best friend wouldn't

"Why?" I would ask

"Because I Love you," you answered

And just like that my world changed

All because of those summer days

Where

You loved and supported me

You were where I needed you to be because, you see

My best friend never really belonged to me, you see

She was never really meant for me

We weren't meant to be

Much unlike you and me

The one who values me

Sergio you and I are meant to be
