Ely Joe - That's Why I Love You Like I Do lyrics

Because you walked that lonesome valley Because I met you in your town Because you saw stars in the alley When the street light, you did crown Because I saw you lift your head Because you knew I was watching you Because there was nothing to be said That's why I love you like I do I am a stranger to the others No one knows you like I do To the great beyond, there is no farther That's why I love you like I do Because I asked if you were cold Because the wind had changed that day Because you needed a hand to hold Because I saw it in your face Because you knew I needed laughter Because it heals the wounded fool Because you saw the near hereafter That's why I love you like I do I am a stranger to the others No one knows you like I do To the great beyond, there is no farther That's why I love you like I do Because the charms you thought you'd hidden In spite of pride, came shinin' thru Because you knew that I was not kiddin' When I said that I could see through you Because I knew that you had diamonds Inside your soul where the wild winds blew Because I thought I was a miner That's why I love you like I do I am a stranger to the others No one knows you like I do To the great beyond, there is no farther That's why I love you like I do
