Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I've learned to love me too
Never have I felt that I could be all that you see
It's like our hearts have intertwined into the perfect harmony
This is why I love you
Oooh! This is why I love you
Because you love me, you love me
This is why I love you
Because you love me, you love me
I found love in you
And no other love will do
Every moment that you smile chases all the pain away
Forever and a while, in my heart is where you'll stay
This is why I love you
Oooh! This is why I love you
Because you love me, you love me
This is why I love you
Oooh! This is why I love you
Because you love me, you love me
The skies have all aligned
And right now is the perfect time to say:
I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I do
This is why I love you
This is why I love you
Because you love me, you love me
This is why I love you
Oooh! This is why I love you
Because you love me, me
I found love in you
And no other love will do
That's why I love you
