I love you

and here's why 

For your gentle beauty

Soft words you so gently 

Speak to me;

You're a complete dream...

 

I love you

and here's why

For your sweet gentle touch

I cry in happiness 

I dream in my tears

Only to hear you say

I love you too

My sweet little dear...

 

I love you 

and here's why

For your sweet smile

That I always seem

To melt into

And everything else

That you do...

 

I love you

and here's why

Can't help but say it

A thousand times

The sweet way that you 

Give me a hug everyday...

 

I love you

and here's why

God set my heart free

When he had brought you to me 

And this I know will always be.

 

I love you

and here's why 

If I wasn't with you

Then I would just 

Completely die

Hiding away in a hole

From the whole world.

 

I love you

and here's why

The way you simply make me feel 

From the time that we met 

To the time when I cried

Right there in your lap...

 

I love you

And I'm never going to stop.

 

I love you

and here's why

When you came to me

And said you'll never leave

Me high and dry

For this will never be a lie...

 

Till the ends of time

You'll always be my

One true life.

 

why, because I'll always

Love you till the day

That God sends me

Completely away.
