YOU ARE
(Dolly Parton)

Dolly Parton - 1976



Sometimes I try to count the ways and reasons that I love you
But I can never seem to count that far
I love you in a million ways and for a million reasons
But more than this I love you as you are
More than this I love you just as you are

You are my inspiration, you are the song I sing
You are what makes me happy, you are my everything
You are my daily sunshine, you are my evening star
Ev'rything I'd ever hoped to find, that's what you are
Ev'rything I'll ever for mine want is what you are
 
You are my thoughts when I'm awake, and my dreams when I'm asleep
You are the reason for my smile, you are the words I speak
Every role I play in life, you play the leading part
Ev'rything I'll ever want or need is what you are
The only one I'll ever want for me, that's what you are

You are my inspiration, you are the song I sing
You are what makes me happy, you are my everything
You are my daily sunshine, you are my evening star
Ev'rything I'd ever had in mind is what you are
The only one I'll ever want for mine, that's what you are

You are my inspiration, you are the song I sing
You are what makes me happy, you are my everything
You are my daily sunshine, you are my evening star
Ev'rything I'd ever hoped to find is what you are
Ev'rything I'll ever for mine want is what you are

Aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah, I love you
Aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah, I love you just as you are

Aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah-aah, I love you, I love you
