Because I Love You
Because I love you isn't a reason
It's an excuse
I should frame you for treason
Teasin' these other girl saying
"I just miss you and love you so much that I had to"
You didn't have to
go out and kiss those other people boo
No
What should it be?
And should I give you the key
to my heart that a few years ago I'd keep safely
under my chest
Beneath my breast?
I lied.
Because I love you can be a reason
Communicating and caring
Sharing and blaring the reasons
why you love me.
I brought you here.
into my arms, I want to know
what was keeping you up at night
How school is going
What is blowing your mind
Is you band performing?
Because I love you
