Just Because

Have you ever loved someone you knew nothing of

Except you'd seen the light inside their eyes

Have you ever loved someone just because

Nothing felt so easy or so right

And I think of you like the others do

Wondering if you think of me

And if you do, if you really do

Who is it that you see

Have you ever loved

Whether right or wrong

Have you ever loved someone

Just because

Have you ever tried to speak the truth instead of lie

When it seemed you had everything to lose

Have you ever tried to stand your ground instead of hide

When staying only made you look a fool

And I stayed by you though I think I knew

It wouldn't change a thing

Changes come to hearts with ease

But they come so hard to me

Have you ever tried

To make it last not knowing why

Except you had to try

Just because

And every day that passes now

I suppose I'm getting older

Wiser with the things I've done

But I hope I don't grow colder

And now I see the ones, who've lost so much

They swear they're done

With love and all the chance it brings for pain

But have you ever touched, and by itself it was enough

To make you want to reach out once again

And I'll touch you when I need a friend

Or just a small reminder

That I haven't grown too cold to feel

You penetrate my armor

Have you ever loved

Whether right or wrong

Have you ever loved someone

Just because

Have you ever loved someone

Just because
