A Nickel and a Dime

I only have a nickel and a dime
I can't take you out for lunch
Are you still mine?
I cannot buy you pretty rings of gold
To compliment that hand I love to hold
I am not a part of any high class clubs
But I'm passionate
And I can give you love
I love you
More then cash or anything
I love you
More then serenades could sing
I love you
Higher then a mountains peak
I love you
Deeper then an oceans wreath
I love you
Brighter then the sun can shine
But I only have a nickel and a dime

nicely penned cory
I love this...if only everyone felt this way...and looked what lies inside a person...and love that...not the things they have, their status, or the idea of them...but love a person for everything they are...the good and the bad....well done...

I sigh for this kind of love, if only it would last. You must be a great lover. Elizabeth
