Because I Love You

It rained this morning
Before the sun spun into view
The water made the street glow
It reminded me of you

I slipped on the sidewalk
Cause the ice was fresh and smooth
I lay down and looked at the sky
It reminded me of you

When I was a kid I thought
That stars are red balls of fire
Trapped between the Earth and God
They grew bright as you got higher

I know now I was so far off
That stars in space are blue
The eyes of a very special person
When they glow I think of you

Have you ever sat down on a bridge?
Have you looked over the side?
Right were the water hits the rocks
That's where love resides

It's a hard concept to get across
So forgive me for my short truth
But the greatest beauty I have seen
I have seen because I love you
