CAUSE I DO
(John Holaday / Becki Holaday)


FARON YOUNG - 1968


I can feel a chill of loneliness when I'm near you
And I've seen hurt in your eyes and understand
And your words reflect the hurt he's put you through
Still, you can't say no one loves you, 'cause I do

Wipe the hurt from your cheeks and try to smile
Let me hold your hand and, honey, let us talk awhile
You say love has always turned it's face from you 
Still, you can't say no one loves you, 'cause I do

There are many kinds of love and emotion
But what I offer you is devotion
Yes, he's gone and he's turned his back on you
Still, you can't say no one loves you, 'cause I do

Yes, he's gone and he's turned his back on you
Still, you can't say no one loves you, 'cause I do
