To love you I need a reason
And it's hard to believe that there's not another one
That even though they say
The pain is still felt
Because all the time that I spent next to you
Wove its thread inside me
And I learned to steal seconds from time
You made me see the sky even deeper
Next to you I think I gained more than three kilos
With your many sweet kisses spread around
You developed my sense of smell
And it was because of you that I learned to love cats
You lifted my shoes off the cement
So that we both could escape flying for a while
But you forgot one final instruction
Because I still don't know how to live without your love
And I discovered what a rose means
You taught me to tell white lies
So that I could see you at improper hours
And to replace words with looks
And it was because of you that I wrote more than a hundred songs
And I even forgave your mistakes
And I learned more than a thousand ways to kiss
And it was because of you that I discovered what it is to love
