Lyrics Verified by Editorial Team

I don't know how I survived

In this cold and empty world

For all this time

I only know that I'm alive

Because you love me


When I recall what I've been through

There's some things

That I wish I didn't do

Now I do the things I do

Because you love me


And now that you're in my life

I'm so glad I'm alive

'Cause you showed me the way

And I know now how good it can be

Because You love me


And now that you're in my life

Oh, I'm so glad I'm alive

'Cause you showed me the way

And I know now how good it can be

Because you love me


I believe in things unseen

I believe in the message of a dream

And I believe in what you are

Because you love me


With all my heart and all my soul

I'm loving you and I never will let go

And every day I'll let it show

Because you love me

Because you love me

Because you love me
