Because I love you I will keep you warm,

give me your hand and I'll give you a home.

Because I love you I'll weather the storm,

You once lost will no longer have to roam.

Because I love you I will hold you tight,

close to my heart I will never falter.

Because I love you I will be your light.

I'll sacrifice my life on the altar.

Because I love you I will be your shield,

your friend, your guardian, your confidant.

Because I love you, dear, you will be healed.

never will you ever have cause to daunt.

Because I love you I'll not ask for much,

just that you, my dear, love me back as such.
