Why

Displaying consideration

When it's the last thing you've deserved

Bearing an open armed heart

While forgetting the gossip I've heard

Accepting every one of your burdens

What strength you had shown

Shoveling away your past pains

Where'd all this heat been grown

Pouring more into you than me

Why do I care for us two

Because we've all earned empathy

Well...and because I love you
