It wasn't long ago I saw and heard somebody say,
I give him thanks for all the good things he has sent my way,
It's then when I wondered if you didn't do the things you do,
If they would still give all the adoration due to you,
I only know...
It's not because you're good, that I feel the way i do,
It's not because you're kind, that makes life for me brand new,
Could be because your love, it's the only love so true,
But it's because you're mine, that is my reason.
The more that time goes by the better it becomes to me,
It's so much sweeter than I ever dreamed it could be,
Don't get me wrong I do enjoy the finer things in life,
But life without you I found nothing word that sacrifice,
I only know...
It's not because you're good, that I feel the way i do,
It's not because you're kind, that makes life for me brand new,
Could be because your love, it's the only love so true,
But it's because you're mine, that is my reason.
It's not because you're good, that I feel the way i do,
It's not because you're kind, that makes life for me brand new,
Could be because your love, it's the only love so true,
But it's because you're mine, that is my reason.
(solo)
You've been so good, and you're oh so kind,
I've never found a greater love.
It's not because you're good, that I feel the way i do,
It's not because you're kind, that makes my life brand new,
Could be because your love, it's the only love so true,
But it's because you're mine,
(because you're mine).
It's not because you're good, you've been so good,
Could be because your love
(because your love),
But it's because you're mine
(because you're mine).
It's not because you're good
(it's not because you're good),
It's not because you're kind
(it's not because you're kind),
Could be because your love
(could be because your love),
But it's because you're mine
(that is, that is my reason).
It's not because you're good, you've been so good
(you've been so good),
Could be because your love
(because of your love),
But it's because you're mine
(you're mine).
It's not because you're good
(you've been so good to me),
It's not because you're kind
(you've been so, so kind),
Could be because your love
(your love, your love so true),
But it's because you're mine
(because you're mine).
It's not because you're good, you've been so good,
Could be because your love
(your love, your love, your love),
But it's because you're mine
(you're mine),
It's not because you're good.
