Love You for Loving Me Lyrics

Never thought I needed anyone,
Or anything to get me through
Come to close and then I'd start to run,
Just to stay one step ahead of you
I'd see others walking hand and hand,
And say to say to myself "what a couple of fools"
How could one woman just love one man?
And not tear his heart in two.
Fools chase love around so desperately,
Until they wind up all alone

Shouldn't love come more naturally,
Like a river cuts into a stone
That's why I,
I love you for loving me,
It's a rare and precious thing.
You cant run from love that's meant to be,
Just let it shine on everything.
Oh It took a little while,
But I found myself.
Right where I did not need to be,
I tried to put the blame on someone else
When it all came crashing all down on me.
That's why I,
I love you for loving me,
It's a rare and precious thing.
You can't run from love that's mean to be.
So let it shine on everything,
Oh let it shine on everything, Yea.
