.: i like you, just because :.

I like you
And I know why,
I like you because
You are a good

person to like.

I like you because
When I tell you something special
You know

it's special
And you remember it
A long, long time.
You say,

"Remember when you told me
something special?"
And both of us remember.

When I think something is important,
You think it's important too.
We have good ideas.

When I say something funny, you laugh.
I think I'm funny.

You think I'm funny too.

I like because
You know where I'm

ticklish
And you don't tickle me there
Except just a tiny bit ...
Sometimes.
Stop!

But if you do, then I know where
to tickle you too.

You know how to be silly.

That's why I like you.
Boy! Are you ever silly!
I never met anyone sillier than me
Till I met you.

I like you because
You know when it's time to stop
being silly.
Maybe day after tomorrow.
Maybe never.

Oops! Too late!
It's quarter past silly.
We fool around the same way all the time.

Sometimes we don't say a word.

We snurkle under fences,

We spy secret places.

If I'm a goofus

on the roofus,
You are one too.

If I pretend I'm drowning,

You pretend you're saving me.

If I am getting ready to pop a paper bag,

Then you're ready to jump.
That's because you really like me.
You really like me,

don't you?
And I like you back.
And that's the way we keep going
Everyday ...

If I go away, then you go away.

Or if I stay home,

You send me a postcard.

You just don't say
Well, see you around sometime.

Bye.
I like you a lot because of that.

If we go away together
And if I get lost

in Grand Central Station,
Then you are the one that's yelling
for me:
"Hey, where are you?

Here I am."

I like you because
When I am

feeling sad
You don't cheer me up right away.
Sometimes it's better to be sad.

You can't stand others being

so googly and goggly
Every single moment.

You want to know about things.
It takes time.

I like you because
If I am mad at you

Then you get mad at me too.

It's awful

when the other person isn't.
Phooey!
They are just so nice and so hoo-hoo you
could just punch them in the nose.

I like you because
When I think I am going to throw up

You don't pretend you are busy

Looking at the birds and all that.
You say: "Maybe it was something you

ate."
You say: "That happened to me one time."
And the same thing did.

If you find two four leaf clovers,
You give me one.

If I find four, I give you two.

If we find only three, we keep looking.
Sometimes we have good luck
And sometimes we don't.

If I break my arm and if you break
your arm too,

Then it is lots of fun to have a
broken arm.
You tell me about mine

And I tell you about yours.
We both are sorry.
We write names and draw pictures.

We show everybody and they wish they
had broken arms too.

I like you because -- I don't know why --
but --
Everything that happens is nicer with you.

I can't remember when I didn't like you,

It must have been lonesome then.

I like you because-- because-- because--
It's the fourth of July

On the fifth of July.

And if you and I had some drums
And some horns and horses and some

fire engines,
We could be a holiday
We could be a celebration

We could be a whole parade.

See what I mean?

Even if it was the nine hundredth and
ninety-nineth of July
Even if it was August
Even if it was way down at the bottom
of September

Even if it was no place in particular in January
I would go on choosing you
And you would go on choosing me

Over and over again.
That's how it would happen every time.

I don't know why.
I guess I don't know why I really
like you.
Why do I like you???

I guess I like you - - -
I guess I like you - - -

Because I LIKE YOU.
