     Written by Roy Croft

     I love you,
     Not only for what you are,
     But for what I am
     When I am with you.

      

     
     I love you,
     Not only for what
     You have made of yourself,
     But for what
     You are making of me.

      

     I love you
     For the part of me
     That you bring out;
     I love you
     For putting your hand
     Into my heaped-up heart
     And passing over
     All the foolish, weak things
     That you can’t help
     Dimly seeing there,
     And for drawing out
     Into the light
     All the beautiful belongings
     That no one else had looked
     Quite far enough to find.

      

     I love you because you
     Are helping me to make
     Of the lumber of my life
     Not a tavern
     But a temple;
     Out of the works
     Of my every day
     Not a reproach
     But a song.

      

     I love you
     Because you have done
     More than any creed
     Could have done
     To make me good,
     And more than any fate
     To make me happy.

      

     You have done it
     Without a touch,
     Without a word,
     Without a sign.
     You have done it
     By being yourself.
