I just love you more

I give you caring apologies and flowers

The tears just pour

•

Your hurt inside begins to soar

I dishonor your request to cry alone for hours

I just love you more

•

I sit next to you on the floor

I call you strong, you call me coward

The tears just pour

•

I pick your meds up from the store

I can’t remember the last time I showered

I just love you more

•

Today we danced, like we did before

Your heart says we’re fine, your mind’s shouting louder

The tears just pour

•

In sickness and health, you’re mine and I’m yours

During the sweetest moments, and the days of sour

I just love you more…

The tears just pour…
