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
But most of all I love you cause you're you
No matter what the world may say about me
I know your love will always see me through

I love you because my heart is lighter every time you're walking by my side
I love you because the future's brighter the door to happiness you've opened wide
No matter what may be the style or seasons 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
