(VERSE 1) How do I love thee? Ooh, let me count the ways— Like the sunshine dancing on the sweetest days. I love thee to the depth and the height of my smile, You make my heart go tiptap like a kid for a while. When my soul reaches out in the quiet of night, You’re the cozy little glow in my candlelight. To the ends of all being, to the dreams I can’t see, Yeah, everything feels brighter when you’re next to me. (PRE-CHORUS – bubbly bounce) I love thee freely—mmm, like sharing my fries, I love thee purely—like you stealing goodbyes… (CHORUS – upbeat and cute) ’Cause I love thee with a passion I can’t hide away, Turned my old rainy clouds into a brighter day. With my childhood faith and the breath in my chest, I’ll love thee—yep—forever, I guess. (Okay fine… definitely yes!) (VERSE 2) I love thee with the love I thought I kinda outgrew, But it bloomed back to life when it landed on you. Every giggle, every tear, every “hey, are you okay?” You turn ’em all to honey in the cutest way. And I love thee with the joy that I keep on repeat, You’re the melody that makes my world skip a beat. With the breath of my soul, with the warm in my chest, My heart keeps singing “you’re the best of the best.” (PRE-CHORUS) I love thee freely—no scorecards, no test, I love thee purely—like the sea loves the west… (CHORUS – bright and bouncy) ’Cause I love thee with a passion I can’t hide away, Turned my old rainy clouds into a brighter day. With my childhood faith and the breath in my chest, I’ll love thee—yep—forever, I guess. (Okay, okay—yes, yes, yes!) (BRIDGE – cute whistles + uke taps) Ohh, count the ways, Count the days, Count the little laughs we’ve yet to make… Every “I love thee” Comes bubbling free, Like soda in a summer shake—hey! (FINAL CHORUS – soft then bubbly lift) I love thee with the passion from the deepest part, Turned the old faded pages to a brand-new start. With my childhood faith and the breath that I get, I’ll love thee now, tomorrow, and every sunset.
