I thought you would steal my time
You stole my heart instead
You helped me find a joy inside
I didn't know I had
And it feels like nothing else
That I have ever felt
And I feel more like myself
When I care for you
When I care for you
When I care for you
The fairy tail we're living is my favorite one so far
When you're with me
I don't need to wish upon a star
And it feels like nothing else
That I have ever felt
And I feel more like myself
When I care for you
When I care for you
When I care for you
I was afraid I would lose myself
I'm not afraid anymore
I'm not saying it's always easy
But it's its own reward
When I care for you
When I care for you
When I care for you
When I care for you
When I care for you
When I care for you
I feel more like myself
