(I love you for a hundred thousand reasons

But most of all I love you cause you're you)



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



And why do I love you I love you because you're helping me

To build from the lumber of my life not a tavern but a temple

From the words of my every day not a reproach but a song

(I love you because you understand dear

But most of all I love you cause you're you)



I love you for ignorin' the possibilities of a fool in me



And for laying firm hold on the possibilities of a good in me

I love you because you've done more than any creed to make me happy

And you've done it without a word



And you've done it without a touch

Without even a sign you've done it just by being yourself

(But most of all I love you cause you're you)



Perhaps after all that's what love really is
