Because I Love You


I hold your hand,

When you need me,

And when you don't,

Because I love you.

 

I kiss your lips,

When you smile,

And when you frown,

Because I love you.

 

I hug you tight,

When you laugh,

And when you cry,

Because I love you.

 

I miss you,

When you're here,

And when you're gone,

Because I love you.
