Intro: I'm independent to a fault, I know this well But I finally found love without losing myself I'm so much happier sharing my life All of the good things and bad things alike I'm not afraid of the truth, I'm not me without you Because of you, I'm me All of a sudden, I'm something I wasn't Because of you, I see Everything I can be, lonely is history I know that I'm better when we're together Because of you, I'm me Well, there's nothing wrong with the world Oh, when you smile The most beautiful sound I ever heard Is you breathing at night When you're asleep and don't know I can hear Sounds like an angel whispering in my ear I don't know what I would do If it wasn't for you Because of you, I'm me All of a sudden, I'm something I wasn't Because of you, I see Everything I can be, lonely is history I know that I'm better when we're together Because of you, I'm me Oh, Because of you, I'm me I don't need you the way a child needs a home It's more like I'm free to admit I'm not too proud to say out loud I am who I am 'cause you're part of me now Because of you, I'm me All of a sudden, I'm something I wasn't Because of you, I see Everything I can be, lonely is history I know that I'm better when we're together Because of you, I'm me Oh, Because of you I'm me
