Jewel - Because I Love You lyrics

It's time now to leave

Quiet the mind of it's chatter

Still the riot in your heart

Disarm the tongue of it's dagger

Tell your arms not to worry so

And listen.....

Step into it

Lift your face into the strong wind

Least we miss it's meaning

Such cold beauty exists here

Do you see it?

Like the landscape

Frozen & waiting to be born

Let me bundle you in clothing

And soft things

Because I love you

I will not send you out into the night

With teeth marks & pride I have stripped you of

We will prepare each other

We will make up our own ceremony

I will draw a compass on your belly

Tell me that its OK

Before you turn me loose

Into the endless sky

Let me kiss you & then send you on your way

For Winters can be long

And I will need a friend
