Every time you dance in the car

Twisting your hips to the beat of the song

Every time you glance back at me

Eyebrow quirked before laughing along

I know that I love you

Every time you come back to the house

Sweaty from workouts and out of breath

Every time you drive us around

Exhausted enough to sleep until death

I know that I love you

Every time you collapse on the couch

Pull up your knees and release a sigh

Every time you sit down and write

Creating worlds where people can fly

I know that I love you

Every time you’re talking to Dad

Pressed to the counter, his hands on your back

Every time you’re wrapped in his arms

With an aura of love that some people lack

I know that I love you
