Because you loved me
You held my heart captive
In an old chest in your room
There you just trapped it
•
Because you loved me
You hid me from your faults
With my heart in that chest
And the devil you waltzed
•
Because you loved me
You threw my life away
When I had nothing to leave for
It was guaranteed I'd stay
•
Because I love me
I broke the chain
That held me down
And caused my pain
•
Because I love me
I learned to grow
I learned to live,
Which seeds to sow
•
Because I love me
I'm not afraid
I don't back down
I speak my say
•
Because he loves me
He holds my hand
He makes me laugh
He's never bland
•
Because he loves me
I'm not his fool
I am his queen
On a pedestal
•
Because he loves me
He taught me love
What I feel from him
Once unheard of
