IF I COULD GIVE YOU
If I could give you diamonds,
For each time you cried for me.
If I could give you Sapphires‘,
For each truth you helped me see.
If I could give you rubies,
For all the heartache you’ve known.
If I could give you pearl’s,
For all the wisdom you show.
Then you would have a treasure
That would mount up to the skies.
That would almost match,
The sparkle in your kind and loving eyes.
But I have no pearls, no rubies,
No sapphires’ or diamonds.
As I’m sure you’re well aware.
So I’ll give you gifts more precious,’
My devotion, my love and care.
