Believe deep down in your heart that you are destined to do great things because you don't succeed by "It is what it is", you succeed by "It is what you make it".


Why do I smile when I see your face?
Why do I want so much to close this space?
Why do I wish my underwear was lace?
Because I do.
Why do I turn such a shade of pink?
Why do I find that you're all I think
About when I'm washing dishes in the sink?
Because I do.
If you ask me why I feel this way
It's the same tomorrow as yesterday
And I couldn't tell you even if I tried.
You can call me crazy but it won't mean much
'Cause I know that this is more than just a crush.
If you want to know the reason I love you
It's because I do.
Why do I feel like I could touch the sky?
Like I'm so happy that people think I'm high?
Like maybe I might've found the perfect guy?
Because I do.
Why do I start planning out our life
And thinking that someday I could be his wife?
Why do I hope this is the last time I wear white?
Because I do.
If you ask me why I feel this way
It's the same tomorrow as yesterday
And I couldn't tell you even if I tried.
You can call me crazy but it won't mean much
'Cause I know that this is more than just a crush.
If you want to know the reason I love you
It's because I do.
Alone in the dark, I'd do the girly thing
And say I always wanna be with you
But if I ask what you think, would you be a boy
And think of all the things that we could do?
If you ask me why I feel this way
It's the same tomorrow as yesterday
And I couldn't tell you even if I tried.
You can call me crazy but it won't mean much
'Cause I know that this is more than just a crush.
Do you want to know the reason I love you?
If I tell you I love you are you here to stay?
Don't wanna live without you, not one more day.
You know the perfect way to make me smile.
You can pick me up when I want to cry
And the truth is that I don't know why.
If you ask me for the reason I love you
All the way from here up to the moon
It's because I do.
Because I just do

In my head the music for this sounded like RaeLynn's "God Made Girls". I'm hoping to change it up a little and come up with some sheet music for it soon.

I'm so glad you liked it! I'm kind of a hopeless romantic, so it'd be awesome if that could really happen
