The face you keep hidden under yor bed
the fear that sometimes makes your feet go numb
the awful things you never said
I know you now
and that is why
I love you
You're scared of doing something bad
You're scared of losing something you could have
all the stuff that makes you sad
I know you now
and that is why
I love you
The summer sunlight in your hair
the fire in your eyes when you go mad
that worn-out sweater that you wear
I know you now
and that is why
I love you
The things you thought I never knew
the darkest parts you tried to keep from me
I saw the good and bad in you
I know you now
and that is why
I love you so
I love you so
