The way you make me feel like I belong
The way you make me right when I am wrong
The way you sacrifice just for me
Just how lucky can a poor man be?

That is why (that's why I love you so)
That is why (that's why I love you so)
Don't you know, baby? (That's why I love you so)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I want the world to know

The way you rub my back when I'm in pain
The way you soothe me so I won't complain
And then you kiss me with your ruby red lips
It thrills me so, I turn a back-over flip

That is why (that's why I love you so)
Don't you know, baby?  (That's why I love you so)
That is why (that's why I love you so)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I want the world to know

If Shakespeare thought that Juliet
Really loved Romeo from the time they met
Uh he would blow his top if he could see
Just how you've been loving me

The way you rub my back when I'm in pain
The way you soothe me so I won't complain
And when you kiss me with your ruby red lips
It thrills me so, I turn a back-over flip

That is why (that's why I love you so)
That is why (that's why I love you so)
Come on now baby (that's why I love you so)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I want take it easy baby (that's why I love you so)
Take it easy honey (that's why I love you so)
Don't you know, now (that's why I love you so)
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I want one more time now
(That's why I love you so) come on, come on baby, hmm honey
