lyrics

How I love you I could never explain
It’s like the rolling water, it’s like the pouring rain
It’s when the clouds open up and let the sun shine in
I have never quite known where it ends or where it begins,
but it’s how I love you

I will sing to you for a minute or two
I will piece it together ‘til it’s beautiful and true
I will find in the center that little piece of light
Oh I will find what we need just to get us through the night
‘cause it’s how I love you
oh it’s how I love you

There’s nothing in the world as beautiful
as counting all the numbers on the wall
when I see in you exactly what I saw
How can I help it?
So when the sun sinks low into the blackness of the night
We will see all the colors, so beautiful and bright
And I will remind you, yeah I will remind you, that
How I love you I could never explain
It’s like the rolling water, it’s like the pouring rain
It’s when the clouds open up and let the sun shine in
I have never quite known where it ends or where it begins,
but it’s how I love you
