"Because I Love You" is a song by Australian recording artist Montaigne.

The song was released in June 2016 as the third and final single from Montaigne's debut studio album, Glorious Heights.

Montaigne told The Music AU their motives for the song were "a look back at what you'd known to be a healthy and fulfilling relationship whilst experiencing it, but with a little perspective discovered was pretty bad.

"[1] It was featured in episode 8 of the first season of the Netflix show Heartstopper.

In an album review, Dylan Marshall from the AU Review said "'Because I Love You' is just a straight up, pop gem... with its self-reflection on a failed relationship being the focal point of the track, it showcases the lengths people are willing to go to in an attempt to overlook problems one might face with their significant other.
