Genuine Love---

GENUINE LOVE


One who touches no other?
One whom embraces;
One whom prays for the other;
One who never fights nor hits;
One who faithful, assured;
One who never leaves me alone, alone?
One who serves God first, and then I;

I chose to enlist; I’ll wait for the kiss;
I’ll talk to my God and I will insist;
Father, may I call on your daughter;
I love her, and oh I, Oh I have a genuine love;

One who asked both Father’s?
For your hand;
One who shows all others?
I’m the one;


One who touches no other?
One whom embraces;
One whom prays for the other;
One who never fights nor hits;
One who faithful, assured;
One who never leaves me alone, alone?
One who serves God first, and then I;

I chose to enlist; I’ll wait for the kiss;
I’ll talk to my God and I will insist;
Father, may I call on your daughter;
I love her, and oh I, Oh I have a genuine love;
