Because I love you I did it


Because I love you I turn my family down 

because you told me I would be safe in your arms 

I let you take my heart because you told me to trust you I ignored the reality 

because you said you loved me I let my gaurd down because you said 

I'll take care of you I got on my knees 

you took care of me but because I love you I made sure one of was happy 

because I love you my family won't look at me no more 

just because... I love you 

I opened my doors to you and let you in 

I loved you that I forgot the respect I had for myself all for you 

Because I belived you and the way you would tell me sweet things 

I forgot what I was worth and what my family was worth 

Because I LOVED YOU I did it 

because I loved you I let you treat me like my grandmas old ragg all because 

I LOVED YOU I DID IT ! 

I don't blame you I know you did it because 

you said "I love you."
