Omdat jij wist dat ik het was
En niet je laatste minnaar
De knapste van de klas
Omdat je blozend voor me stond
Naief en van de kook
Omdat jij smoorverliefd was
Daarom was ik het ook
Omdat jij bij me blijven wou
Ondanks mijn bot gedrag
Die vrijgezellendrift
Gepikt hebt elke dag
Omdat je maling aan de mensen had
Aan geroddel en gestook
Omdat jij zo graag trouwen wou
Daarom wou ik het ook
Omdat jij door bleef vechten
Op het randje van de dood
Het wrede, tedere leven
In je armen sloot
Omdat je onomwonden
Het huwelijksbed indook
Omdat jij zo graag kinderen wou
Daarom kreeg ik ze ook
Omdat jij leven kunt
Met mij, zoals ik ben
Omdat jij altijd anders bent
Dan ik, denk dat ik jou ken
Omdat jij jouw heilig vuur
Niet verstikken laat in rook
Omdat jij weet wat liefde is
Daarom weet ik het ook
