Loving You

You asked me how I could love you.

You wanted to know what I see.

I told you the answer is simple...

The tenderness saved just for me.

I don't ask for much but I'm picky.

I want to be treated with care.

I want someone who will protect me,

And promise he'll always be there.

Fortune and fame don't impress me.

But character certainly does.

Everything in you just suits me.

You are the one man I love.
