Because You Love Me

Because you love me, I need your trust

You can’t be here just for lust

I need to know that you’re in this for love

If not, you’re now someone I’ll have to get rid of

Because you love me, we need to communicate

Talk to me about the things you like, and the things you hate

Don’t shut down if we disagree

Let’s talk it out, communication is key

Because you love me, you’ll never angrily raise your hand

To lay a finger, on my pretty little head

You won't force me to do anything without my consent

The time I spend with you, will be peacefully spent

Because you love me, I’ll also feel the same

You’d make me so happy, I’ll never feel any pain

Although I’m broke, your love would make me feel wealthy

Because you love me, our relationship would be healthy
