I feel different every day and so it helps if I hear you say
I love you. I love you.
You are beautiful today.
And when I cry it helps when you hold me close
Whispering,
I’m so sorry you are feeling sad.
Remember crying does not make you bad.
I love you. I love you.
I’m so glad that you are mine.
And when I laugh and you laugh too
My joy is magnified by you.
And when your words make me laugh along,
I often feel like a happy song.
I love you. I love you.
Your smile helps me to find mine too.
And when your life feels weighted down,
And all you want to do is frown and be alone.
It helps if you come seek me out
Just wanting me to be with you – alone, and quiet.
Together. United as you seek relief in your own way.
As you walk by the place I am,
I love when you reach out your hand and touch me softly
To let me know that I am seen.
This lets me know that you seek me,
No matter where,
And that you care.
When we walk together into a room,
and I feel your hand on the small of my back,
I close my eyes with pleasure,
Feeling secure that you are there. With me.
And that you claim me as yours.
I make many mistakes and some hurt you,
but I hope I say I’m sorry too!
Then I hope to hear you say,
I love you, I love you.
I love you more each day
And am really thankful you choose to stay.
When you say I am sorry when you don’t get it right,
I hear “I love you with all my might.
You are Precious to me.
My treasure.
I love you.”
