Because I love you, and you love me.

Because I love you,

I cannot let you go.

Through the rain, the shine, the hail, the snow.

I cannot let you go.

Because I love you, I love you so.

 

Because I love you,

I cannot keep you here.

Locked up and chained by the love we bear.

I cannot keep you here.

Because I love you, my dearest dear.

 

Because I love you,

I cannot clip your gorgeous wings.

Because I want to witness the light you’ll bring.

I cannot clip your gorgeous wings.

Because I love you, you incredible thing.

 

Because I love you,

I cannot let you go uncherished.

You are not perfect, but my belief in you will not perish.

I cannot let you go uncherished.

Because I love you, your confidence I will bandage.

 

Because I love you,

I will set you free.

I’ll trust you on your journeys to find a way back to me.

I will set you free.

Because I love you, and you love me.
