I lie in bed beside you and watch you while you sleep
And wonder who I was before I loved you
Lying here beside you, feeling so complete
Thinking how I love and need and trust you

Because I love you
I'm a brand new person now
Because you love me
I can't face the world unhappy
Because I love you
Because you love me
Because I love you

Sweeter even still is knowing that you're lying there
And that you'll soon awake and reach to hold me
And anyway you want me, that's the way that I am yours
Love as strong as this lets you control me

Because I love you
I'm a brand new person now
Because you love me
I can't face the world unhappy
Because I love you
Because you love me
Because I love you
Because I love you
I'm a brand new person now
Because you love me
I can't face the world unhappy
Because I love you
