Because I Love You

Because I Love You   Shaking Steven 
If[1] I got down on my knee[2] and I pleaded with you[3]

 If I crossed[4] a million oceans[5]

just to be with[6] you

Would you ever let me down[7]
   

If I climbed[8] the highest[9] mountain[10]

just to hold you tight[11]

If I said that I would love you every single night[12]

Would you ever let me down
 
 

Well, I'm sorry if it sounds kind of sad[13]

It's just that I'm worried, so worried[14]

that you'll let me down
 
 

*Because I love you

I love you, love you

So don't let me down
 
 

If I swam the longest river

just to call your name[15]

If I said the way I feel for you would never change[16]

Would you ever fool around[17]

(Go to *)

[6] just 只是  to = in order to 為了要  be with sb 和某人在一起
[7] If + S +過去式動詞，S + would +原V：是表「想像」的句型，would作「會」解。ever放在if子句裡當「究竟」之意。let sb. down (phr.)讓某人失望。

[9] the highest是high（高的）的最高級
[10] mountain (n) 山
[11] hold (v) 抱；握。 tight (adv) 緊地。
[12] single (adj) 單獨的   every single 是every（每一個）的強調用法，表「每一個、每一個」

[16] I feel for you(我同情你)是補充說明the way(方式)的形容詞子句，意為「我同情你的方式」。Fell for sb.是「同情某人」之意，在此可能是「為你著想」之意。
