Why Do I Love You (Melody Of Love)

Why Do I Love You (Melody Of Lo - Jim Reeves (吉姆·裡夫斯)

Written by：Jerome Kern/Oscar Hammerstein II/Davies/Engleman

Why do I love you I love you not only for what you are

But for what I am when I'm with you

I love you not only for what you've made of yourself

But for what you're making of me

I love you for ignoring the possibilities of the fool in me

And for laying firm hold of the possibilities for good in me

Why do I love you

I love you for closing your eyes to the dischords

And for adding to the music in me by worshipful listening

I love you because

You're helping to make of the lumber of my life

Not a tavern but a temple

And out of the words of my everyday

Not a reproach but a song

I love you because you have done more than any creed

To make me happy

You have done it without a word

Without a touch without a sign

You have done it just by being yourself

And after all perhaps that's what love means
