Ely Joe - That's Why I Love You Like I Do lyrics

Because you walked - that lonesome valley

Because I met - you in your town

Because you saw - stars in the alley

Because the street - light, you, did crown

Because I saw - you lift your head

Because you knew - I was watching you

Because there was - nothing to be said

Thats why I love - you like I do

I am a stranger to the others

No one knows - you like I do

To the Great Beyond -There is no farther

Thats why I love - you like I do...

Because I asked - if you were cold

Because the wind - had changed that day

Because you needed - a hand to hold

Because I saw - it in your face

Because you knew - I needed laughter

Because it heals - the wounded fool

Because you saw - the near hereafter

Thats why I love - you like I do

I am a stranger to the others

No one knows - you like I do

To the Great Beyond -There is no farther

Thats why I love - you like I do...

Because the charms - You thought youd hidden

In spite of pride, - Came shinin thru

Because you knew - that I was not kiddin

When I said that I -- could see through you

Because I knew - that you had diamonds

Inside youre soul - where the wild winds blew

Because I thought -- I was a miner

Thats why I love - you like I do

I am a stranger to the others

No one knows - you like I do

To the Great Beyond -There is no farther

Thats why I love - you like I do...
