I Love You Because
Elvis Presley Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I love you because you understand dear
Every single thing I try to do.
You're always there to lend a helping hand, dear.
I love you most of all because you're you.

No matter what the world may say about me,
I know your love will always see me through.
I love you for the way you never doubt me.
But most of all I love you 'cause you're you.

No matter what may be the style or season,
I know your heart will always be true.




I love you for a hundred thousand reasons,
But most of all I love you 'cause you're you.

Love ❤️ you Lisa Maree

You have always been a Beautiful woman
Your voice and the love you have for your Father and Family
Condolences for your son
I lost my Dad before Christmas 2019 and 2 and half weeks before he turned 85 my Dad was the same age as Elvis.
Before My Dad passed away I showed him a piece of hair from Elvis I bought in Parks. In Australia 🇦🇺
Thinking of you and your family
Love ❤️ from me and my family here in Australia 🇦🇺

This video is a beautiful reminder that Elvis wasn't just an icon in this world, but that he was someone's son, father, and he's a missed grandfather. There's a lot of love in the Presley family. ❤️

Hearing this for the first time after Lisa’s passing, so unbearably tragic. Prayers to her babies, Priscilla, and everyone who loved her dearly for the time we got to know her beautiful soul.

And now her daughter Riley Keough became a mother of a baby girl, I'm pretty sure Lisa Marie would've loved being a grandmother herself.
