Lyrics
Because you walked that lonesome valley
Because you've experienced difficult times or challenges
Because I met you in your town
Because our initial meeting occurred in your hometown
Because you saw stars in the alley
Because you found beauty or hope in unexpected places
When the street light, you did crown
When the street light illuminated your presence
Because I saw you lift your head
Because I observed your resilience or determination
Because you knew I was watching you
Because you were aware of my attention towards you
Because there was nothing to be said
Because words were unnecessary to express our connection
That's why I love you like I do
Explaining the reasons for the deep affection felt
I am a stranger to the others
Emphasizing being unfamiliar to others
No one knows you like I do
Highlighting a unique understanding or closeness
To the great beyond, there is no farther
Expressing the limitlessness of connection or love
That's why I love you like I do
Reiterating the depth of affection towards you
Because I asked if you were cold
Because I cared about your well-being in changing conditions
Because the wind had changed that day
Due to a shift in the weather or circumstances
Because you needed a hand to hold
Because you required support or comfort
Because I saw it in your face
Perceiving your emotions through facial expressions
Because you knew I needed laughter
Because you recognized the necessity for joy or happiness
Because it heals the wounded fool
As laughter has a healing effect, especially for someone in distress
Because you saw the near hereafter
Because you foresaw what was coming in the near future
That's why I love you like I do
Reaffirming the depth of affection towards you
I am a stranger to the others
Emphasizing being unknown or unfamiliar to others
No one knows you like I do
Stressing the unique understanding or closeness shared
To the great beyond, there is no farther
Expressing the limitlessness of connection or love
That's why I love you like I do
Reiterating the depth of affection towards you
Because the charms you thought you'd hidden
Because your inner qualities or traits were still evident despite efforts to conceal them
In spite of pride, came shinin' thru
Despite pride, your genuine self was visible
Because you knew that I was not kiddin'
Because you understood the sincerity of my perception
When I said that I could see through you
Recognizing the ability to see through superficial appearances
Because I knew that you had diamonds
Because I recognized your inherent value or beauty
Inside your soul where the wild winds blew
Inner strength and resilience even in difficult circumstances
Because I thought I was a miner
Feeling like a seeker of your hidden treasures (qualities or virtues)
That's why I love you like I do
Reiterating the depth of affection towards you
I am a stranger to the others
Emphasizing being unknown or unfamiliar to others
No one knows you like I do
Stressing the unique understanding or closeness shared
To the great beyond, there is no farther
Expressing the limitlessness of connection or love
That's why I love you like I do
Reaffirming the depth of affection towards you
