It starts small.

"Why shouldn't I?"

"Well dear. Because I love you."

Your best friend giggles at the sweet texts

"Because I love you."

He makes her fall in love with these words he tells her,

"but I love you, I love you, I love you."

It starts with an argument.

All you wanted was to see her, but now they're fighting, and she's crying so she leaves.

She leaves to see him.

"Because I love you."

The smiles are less, the fights are more.

"Because I love you."

She stops listening to you, so all you can do is wait.

"Because I love you."

You wait for the day she shows up bruised so you can finally do something about it.

"Because I love you."

She feels so alone, says she doesn't know how to be happy without him.

"Because I love you."

You feel so alone, but baby, as hard as he 'loves; you,

I love you so much more.
