Lyrics

Because of You

When I think back on all those years, I made a mess of things
Like when I pawned your wedding ring, still you stayed around.
Picked me up from the ground, never letting me go,
Why I just don't know, I don't know.

Now there's nothin' that I wouldn't do.
You got my heart you know it true.

Because of you, yeah, I wanna be a better man.
Because of you, yeah, I finally understand.
The joy love brings, the power to dream, the courage to forgive.
Because of you, I have a life to live.

When all the chips were down, and no friends were left to be found.
There you stood all alone, calling me calling me home.
You are the star that lights my way, and the song I love to play.
You're the gentle voice in me ear, telling me it's okay.

Now there's nothin' that I wouldn't do.
You got my heart you know it true.

Because of you, yeah, I wanna be a better man.
Because of you, yeah, I finally understand.
The joy love brings, the power to dream, the courage to forgive.
Because of you, I have a life to live.

You always say that heaven, is just a thought away.
Well, okay, still I would rather be here with you.
Holding you in my arms, wrapped up in all your charms
day after day.

Because of you, yeah, I wanna be a better man.
Because of you, yeah, I finally understand.
The joy of love, the power to dream, the courage to forgive.
Because of you, I now have, full of love to live.
