Nikka Costa - Just Because lyrics

I take you in

And I hold my breath

And try to save the time that's passing by

And if it came to say goodbye

A thousand summers could never dry

Every tear that touched my face

And they don't laugh the way you do

And they don't smile the way you do

And their eyes don't shine the way yours do

I love you

Just because

Without the words to fall back on

I'm afraid it's hopeless to describe

And if I tried

I'd probably steer you wrong

A thousand phrases could never say

How I feel today

And they don't laugh the way you do

And they don't smile the way you do

And their eyes don't shine the way yours do

I love you

Just because
