You Look Like Love To Me I've been to state and county fairs I've crossed the great divide. I swam across Niagra Falls to reach the other side. I knocked a ball out of the park I hit a hole in one. I swore that I would do it all before my life was done. I jumped from a plane so high and fell through hoops on fire. They all thought I lost my mind I kept yelling take me higher. But it stopped me in my tracks I can't believe just what I see! I looked into your big blue eyes and you look like love to me. I wrestled with a grizzly bear a crocodile and a snake. Just when it started getting fun they all took a break. I climbed a big ole mountain once that's known for being steep. Just to make things interesting I did it in my sleep. I deep sea dived the ocean long after it got dark. The boat they left without me so I rode back on a shark. I made ten million tooth picks I carved out of a tree. And I just can't believe my eyes cause you look like love to me. Edwin C Hofert
