"Because of You"

(Lyrics by Bryan Abrams)

I was only half a man
I was only halfway there
Until you showed me you cared
Said you wanted to share
Your life with me
And from that moment I knew
And when I look in your eyes
Baby girl, you complete me
That's why I sincerely
Want you to know
That your heart fills my soul
And it's because of you

And because of you 
I grew up and finally found myself
Loving life wouldn't change a thing
Wouldn't trade us for nothing else
And I know there's gonna be rocky roads ahead
They're waiting for us
Don't worry about a thing
Girl, this is real
Love can't ignore us
I'm always gonna be there for you
Like the rock you are in my life
If I could I'd still never ask for anything more

Each day that passes
Girl, I love you more
Than every day that came before
I know that it might
Might sound crazy
But I can't get enough of that
Good love

I used to be the type to hit and run
I thought I was just having fun
Until I realized I hurt you and I
Almost drowned in those precious tears
Girl, I tried and I tried
To make up for
All the things that I've done as a fool
Then once again
I do something to hurt you all over
And I hated myself
That wasn't cool

And then because of you 
I grew up and finally found myself
Loving life wouldn't change a thing
Wouldn't trade us for nothing else
That's why I wanted to take the time
To tell you how much I love you

Each day that passes
Girl, I love you more
Than every day that came before
I know that it might
Might sound crazy
But I can't get enough of that
Good love
When I'm thinking back on yesterday
And how much everything has changed
Know that it might sound crazy but
But I still can't get enough of that
Good love

Even if this love letter takes me all night
I'll do whatever it takes just to get it right

(If we can make it through everything
That we’ve been going through
We’ll make it through anything)

(Because)
Don't need the money
(Because)
Don't need the fame
(Because)
As long as you're with me
(Because)
I've got everything
(Just because)
I love you so

Girl, I hope in the end I made up for
All the things that I've done as a fool
And one day soon we'll get married
Have kids of our own and I hope
They're just as beautiful as
They're just as precious as
You are to me

[CHORUS REPEATS]

Girl, I love you
I love you
That's why I wrote this one for you
I can't get enough of that
Good love
Thinking about the yesterdays
And how much everything has changed
Still can't get enough of that
Unconditional
As a matter of fact
That oughta hold you
'Til you get back
Good love

Because of You
