I Do Love You

I Do Love You

You may not love me, but I love you
Think I don’t know a thing, about the things you’re going through
It may be hard to realize but I was once young too
You may not believe it, but I do love you

The day that you were born I cried
A love began I can’t describe
I knew the road ahead would not be tame
But I would not trade a day with you,
Well maybe there’d be one or two
I’d like to have a chance to try again

You may not love me, but I love you
Think I don’t know a thing, about the things you’re going through
It may be hard to realize but I was once young too
You may not believe it, but I do love you

You don’t think you’re good enough
Well, really you’re both strong and tough
I know, I‘ve face that side of you before
The things that seem like mountains now
When you look back are small somehow
I wish that I could help you see that more

You even say you hate me but I still love you
Think I don’t know a thing about the things you’re going through
It may be hard to realize but I’ve been your age too
You may not believe it, but I do love you

I know that you will make mistakes
You don’t know how much it takes to watch
When you’ve been hurt and fallen down
I know because I’ve made my share
Some things in life you can’t repair
When you head that way I’ll pray you turn around

You may not say you love me, but I believe you do
Maybe you will never know there’s nothing you could ever do
To lose my love completely though we may have hard days
You may not believe it but I’ll love you always
You may not believe it now, but I’ll love you always
