Though I know you are asleep
I whisper to your ear
Words that would make you feel
Like the night when we first kissed
Tracing shadows around your lips

I thought I felt a smile
...Or can you hear me say
That I'm in love with you?

You don't have to, you don't need to
Tend to me when I feel ill
Make me tea, bring me a blankie
Or give me headache pills
You don't have to but you still do
Wait for me until I get home
Say you missed me, hug and kiss me
Say you thought of me all day
You don't have to, you don't need to
Say you love me every way
At the red lights kiss my day bright
Take all my stress away

When the day falls into night
In one another's arms
Is when I start to dream
Of all those little things
You do out of the blue
You do to make me smile
All of those little things you do
Is why I'm so in love with you

I don't have to, I don't need to
Open doors to let you in
Bring you something when you need it
Just to make that sweet face grin
I don't have to, but I still do
Try my best to make you blush
Sneeze, I bless you; Hurt, caress you
Give you a raspberry
I don't have to, I don't need to
Say I love you 10 times a day
Rub your neck when you are driving
Or with your hair I'll play

When the day falls into night
In one another's arms
Is when you start to dream
Of all those little things
I do out of the blue
I do to make you smile
All of those little things I do
Is why you love me like you do
