Because It's You

Because It's You — by Ray 昕光

About this song

Because It's You is not a song about dramatic love stories or perfect moments. It's about the kind of love that arrives quietly — after years of waiting, choosing, and staying. Not because love is perfect, but because after everything, it's you.

Songwriter's Notes

Because It's You is about a love that didn't rush, but arrived with certainty. For a long time, I believed that loving someone meant watching from a distance — that if the feeling was deep enough, silence was enough. But love doesn't stay untouched. Happiness, I learned, is something you choose — every day. This song is a quiet promise: to protect, to stay, and to walk forward together.

Lyrics

Years ago, I stayed quietly by your side Every word I tried just couldn't reach your heart All those moments we just passed by Turned out it all was leading us right here I once thought loving someone meant Watching from afar was always enough back then But when you turned and looked at me I learned that happiness is choosing you every day Because it's you, I know what love means Your heart chose me, and it set me free Let me hold you close, let me keep you safe with me All the years I chased your fading light Now you're here and you're my sweetest sight All I want is you, to be happy every day When you smile, the whole world gently quiets Thoughts of you stayed with me through lonely nights till morning The day your hand gently found mine Every waiting hour turned into something sweet at last I just wish that every day ahead I can stand before the storms you haven't faced yet The one you trust and lean upon Has always been me, true from day one Because it's you, I know what love means Your heart chose me, and it set me free Let me hold you close, let me keep you safe with me All the years I chased your fading light Now you're here and you're my sweetest sight All I want is you, to be happy every day If the world ever makes you doubt your way I'll be right here, never walking away All those years that led me here to you Taught me one thing I'm lucky it's you Because it's you, I know what love means Your heart chose me, and it set me free Let me hold you close, let me keep you safe with me All the years I chased your fading light Now you're here and you're my sweetest sight All I want is you, to be happy every day I'm lucky it's you
