#becauseiloveyou


I love you

You and me

All we are

All we’ll be

Together

You and I

For forever

And here’s why


That’s just the thing

You, you’re good to me

And no, I’m not crazy

I know it’s true

There are things that you say

That I need to hear

And you say say them cause they’re true

Cause I love you

And you love me

Cause that’s all we are

That’s all i know to be


I say I’m no beauty

But then you refute me

When you brew that tea

For my sisters and me

And you call my mama to say “how’s she”

That’s when i finally believe you

Our love, it’s tried and true


I know that you love me

When I look back in our history

And find that the consistency

Of our chemistry

With you and me, there’s no sophistry

That’s so common among lovers of some twisted phyrric victory



We’ve been through so much, now and then

There’s no end to the troubles we’ve had

These troubles have raised me up and we know it’s never “Sinn Fenn”

It’s us with the world, us together, good or bad


You’ve seen me at my worst

And loved me all the same

You were the one I truly loved first

Loved, love, brighter than the brightest candle flame


So, here’s why

Forever,

You and I

Together,

All We’ll be

All we are

You and me

Because I love you

And you love me.
