The Greatest Love Story
The greatest love story ever told
Is right here in my heart
It isn't fancy with fancy words
It's sweet like the song of a lark
No need for any material things
To prove the depth my love
Just holding your body close to mine
A love that fits like a glove
Many words have since been written
About how true love endures
Words expressing one's inner feelings
Feelings so intense and pure
Life on earth is a fleeting thing
We're here next moment we're gone
Love until your very last breath
Too soon you'll be passing the baton
My heart sings with the joys of love
Tender words flow out like a river
The greatest love story ever told
Makes my soul and body quiver
