I Love You Because You're You

by Liza Baker

I love you when you're happy

and grinning ear to ear.

I love you when you're sleepy

and want to snuggle near.

I love you when you're silly

and dancing 'round

and 'round.

I love you when you're frightened

and hear a scary sound.

I love you when you're bashful

and hide behind my knee.

I love you when you're brave,

and from my arms you flee.

I love you when you're curious

and searching here and there.

I love you when you're proud,

your head held in the air.

I love you when you're sick

and need to rest in bed.

I love you when you're frisky

and standing on your head.

I love you when you're sad

and need a kiss and hug.

I love you when you're playful

and rolling on the rug.

I love you when you're angry

and cross your arms and pout.

I love you when you're wild

and yell and scream and shout.

I love you any way you feel,

no matter what you do.



I love you any way you are.

I love you because you're

you!
