Summary: He does it because he loves her.
He loves her, is in love with her, and he knows it. Has known it for certain since the incident with the gas-masked child in blitzed WWII London and has suspected it for longer still.
And yet he's refusing to act on it - for reasons that made sense to him when he thought of them (but that was then; this is now). But when she re-appears - all golden, shining, bright - with his TARDIS and saves his sorry arse from the Daleks, he finally changes his mind.
Greater love hath no man, that old Earth book says, after all.
