Why I Love You Lyrics

When the dawn creeps in

Past the shades of night

And the morning rolls o're the land

And the lilac yawns at the touch of the sun

I awaken and reach for your hand

Go and ask the sky why it's painted blue

And you'll know

Why I love you

When the earth lets go of the life she gave

And her sorrow's ablaze in the trees

I'll run through the fields to your waiting arms

And go falling just like the leaves

Go and ask the moon why it shines at night

And you'll know

Why I love you

Like the mountain streams

Swell the rivers wide

So you fill me up endlessly

With a love that flows to the changing tide

And is ever as deep as the sea

Go and ask my heart how it learned to fly

And you'll know

Why I love you
