jim reeves – why do i love you (melody of love) lyrics
(spoken)
why do i love you?
i love you not only for what you are
but for what i am when i’m with you.
i love you not only for what you’ve made of yourself
but for what you’re making of me.
i love you for ignoring the possibilities of the fool in me
and for laying firm hold of the possibilities for good in me.
why do i love you?
i love you for closing your eyes to the dischords
and for adding to the music in me by worshipful listening.
i love you because you’re helping to make of the lumber of
my life, not a tavern but a temple, and out of the words
of my everyday not a reproach but a song.
i love you because you have done more than any creed
to make me happy.
you have done it without a word, without a touch,
without a sign. you have done it just by being yourself
and after all, perhaps that’s what love means…
