Because You Love Me
Because you love me,
you told me to stay
with your friends
instead of going out with mine today.
Because I'm your everything,
you'll control me
tell me what I should think on
and who I should be.
Because you care for me,
you put me down
tell me I'm not a princess,
so you take off my crown.
Because you adore me,
you eliminate privacy
take all my passwords,
copy each of my keys.
Because she loves me,
a friend stops me today
looks me in the eyes,
tells me to get away.
But because I love you
I tell her I'm fine
nothing to worry about,
don't realize it's a lie.
Because you're concerned,
you push me around
yell at me, push me,
and let me fall down.
Because you're in control,
you put me in my place
lose your temper again
and leave a scar on my face.
Because you love me,
you apologize.
buy me candy and flowers
and feed me more lies.
But now I see clearly
and finally I know;
because I love you,
I'm letting you go.
