Mary Chapin Carpenter - Just Because Lyrics
Have you ever loved someone you knew nothing ofExcept youd seen the light inside their eyesHave you ever loved someone just becauseNothing felt so easy or so rightAnd I think of you like the others doWondering if you think of meAnd if you do, if you really doWho is it that you seeHave you ever lovedWhether right or wrongHave you ever loved someoneJust becauseHave you ever tried to speak the truth instead of lieWhen it seemed you had everything to loseHave you ever tried to stand your ground instead of hideWhen staying only made you look a foolAnd I stayed by you though I think I knewIt wouldnt change a thingChanges come to hearts with easeBut they come so hard to meHave you ever tried to make it last, not knowing whyExcept you had to tryJust becauseAnd every day that passes now, I spose Im getting olderWiser with the things Ive doneBut I hope I dont grow colderAnd now I see the ones, whove lost so muchThey swear theyre doneWith love and all the chance it brings for painBut have you ever touched, and by itself it was enoughTo make you want to reach out once againAnd Ill touch you when I need a friendOr just a small reminderThat I havent grown too cold to feelYou penetrate my armorHave you ever lovedWhether right or wrongHave you ever loved someoneJust becauseHave you ever loved someoneJust because
