Carry You As You Carried Me


Because I Love You,

When you can't walk, I will carry you.

With a helpful hand I will care to you,

With a listening ear I will share to you,

And with my advice I will be fair to you.

Because I Love You,

When you can't stand, I will be your legs.

I will make sure you don't fall when you're close to a ledge.

If you're going down, I will protect your precious head.

And if you break, I'll fix up every edge.

Because I Love You,

When you can't fly, I will be your wings.

I will heal your wounds when you're hit with life's painful sting.

When evil things cling to you, only good things I will sing to you.

And attached will be no strings, because to you I owe these things.

Because You Love Me.

When I could not walk, you carried me.

And when I could not stand, you were me legs.

And when I could not fly, you were my wings.

To you I owe these things, because You Love Me.

And because I Love You.
