You don’t like that I say ‘I love you’
Cause I say it quite a lot
You say it loses meaning
But I know that it has not
I love you is not I love you when I come home from a long hard day
It means I took this job for you, but still it is ok
I love you is not I love you when we sit just you and me
It means you are more precious than the friends I do not see
I love you is not I love you when it’s late and I lie awake
It means that I am scared of all the chances I never got to take
I love you is not I love you when I back down when we fight
It means you're more important than what I believe is right
I love you is not I love you when I'm so tired I cannot see
It means that if you're happy I will bear it quietly
It means I'm scared and sometimes sad and don't know what to do
It means for all the things gone bad, the only good is you
