I Don'T Love You

I don’t love you for your beautiful eyes. But looking at them tend to mesmerize. I don’t love you for your beautiful face Or your warm heart so full of grace. I don’t love you because of your smile Or because I’ve known you for a while. I don’t love you because you’re smart Or just because you captured my heart. I don’t love you because of your love Or because you look like angles above. Oh no, I don’t love you for any of these, Nor do I love you because you please. I don’t love you for the way you look, But without trying you set the hook. I don’t love you for what you say But maybe I can explain some day. I don’t love you for a particular thing, But the fullness to my life you bring All rolled up in my dreams of you. When you appear they all come true. Why don’t I love you? Maybe I should Make myself more understood. I don’t love you like you think I do, I only love you because you’re you.
