Because I Love You


The way I hold you tight

The way I kiss your lips

They way I make you happy

Is because I love you

The way you grab my hand

The way you tell your friends

The way you share to the world

Is it because you love me?

Do you really mean that?

Do you really love me?

Or is it just a game you play?

I hold you when you're down

I try my best to keep you happy

Because I love you

That is what love is

Keeping your person happy and making them feel loved

But do you love me?
