A Most Precious Thing

Real true love is such a precious thing Unequaled in our human emotions Certainly way ahead of hate and mistrust This feeling of absolute devotion Like no other since the world was new So honoured and tested by time Like a soft summer breeze on a starlit night Like the smell of sweet roses divine Nothing equals the feeling of love Not even sweet chocolate fudge Uh maybe chocolate fudge is pretty close Naw, love's much sweeter, nudge, nudge Ahh, I've thought of something sweeter The smell of a newborn infant Now who could contest that my friends Totally divine, like heaven sent
