Because of you...

Because of you, I still celebrate...

Because of you, I love a little more.

Because of you, I take time to give an extra kiss good-bye.

Because of you, I have a new favorite song.

Because of you, there may be dust on the window sill,
and I don't care.

Because of you, I live today,
before I worry about tomorrow.

Because of you, I don't give up quite as fast.

Because of you, I still believe in rainbows.

Because of you, now I can help or listen more.

Because of you, today, I am me.
