Because you walked - that lonesome valley
|
Because I met - you in your town
|
Because you saw - stars in the alley
|
Because the street - light, you, did crown
|
|
Because I saw - you lift your head
|
Because you knew - I was watching you
|
Because there was - nothing to be said
|
Thats why I love - you like I do
|
|
I am a stranger to the others
|
No one knows - you like I do
|
To the Great Beyond -There is no farther
|
Thats why I love - you like I do...
|
|
Because I asked - if you were cold
|
Because the wind - had changed that day
|
Because you needed - a hand to hold
|
Because I saw - it in your face
|
|
Because you knew - I needed laughter
|
Because it heals - the wounded fool
|
Because you saw - the near hereafter
|
Thats why I love - you like I do
|
|
I am a stranger to the others
|
No one knows - you like I do
|
To the Great Beyond -There is no farther
|
Thats why I love - you like I do...
|
|
Because the charms - You thought youd hidden
|
In spite of pride, - Came shinin thru
|
Because you knew - that I was not kiddin
|
When I said that I -- could see through you
|
|
Because I knew - that you had diamonds
|
Inside youre soul - where the wild winds blew
|
Because I thought -- I was a miner
|
Thats why I love - you like I do
|
|
I am a stranger to the others
|
No one knows - you like I do
|
To the Great Beyond -There is no farther
|
Thats why I love - you like I do...

That's Why I Love You Like I Do
