Just Because Lyrics by Mary Chapin Carpenter

Just Because Lyrics

    Have you ever loved someone you knew nothing of
    Except you'd seen the light inside their eyes
    Have you ever loved someone just because
    Nothing felt so easy or so right

    And i think of you like the others do
    Wondering if you think of me
    And if you do, if you really do
    Who is it that you see

    Have you ever loved
    Whether right or wrong
    Have you ever loved someone
    Just because

    Have you ever tried to speak the truth instead of lie
    When it seemed you had everything to lose
    Have you ever tried to stand your ground instead of hide
    When staying only made you look a fool

    And i stayed by you though i think i knew
    It wouldn't change a thing
    Changes come to hearts with ease
    But they come so hard to me
    Have you ever tried to make it last, not knowing why
    Except you had to try
    Just because

    And every day that passes now, i s'pose i'm getting older
    Wiser with the things i've done
    But i hope i don't grow colder

    And now i see the ones, who've lost so much
    They swear they're done
    With love and all the chance it brings for pain
    But have you ever touched, and by itself it was enough
    To make you want to reach out once again

    And i'll touch you when i need a friend
    Or just a small reminder
    That i haven't grown too cold to feel
    You penetrate my armor

    Have you ever loved
    Whether right or wrong
    Have you ever loved someone
    Just because
    Have you ever loved someone
    Just because
