You may never hear I love you
slip through my parted lips
If you can't see it in the things I do
you may never understand its grip
Those are mere words uttered bare
too often without thought or true care
Mistaken so often for desire or thrill
and not thought through intentions and will
So, if one day I say it
you will truly know
it comes from deep within
and never will it go.
I do = I accept you as my own
I love you = I accept you as you are and what
you are to become
