(To no one in particular.)
How much is my love?
Do you ask?
Not for sale.
You give me bouquets,
Bring me to buffets,
Your gifts are sapphires,
And your love on fire.
Then some chocolate
As we're awed by the Golden gate,
And you made me wear pearls
to match my pretty curls.
How much is my love?
Must you ask?
Not for sale.
I care not about your money,
Your wealth, or your fame.
I care not about these things.
Flattery is not my game.
My love is not for sale.
Nor for rent, nor for exchange.
My love is free
To anyone who'll freely love me.
How much is my love?
You ask me.
A penny of kisses to a dollar of love.
How much is my love?
Do you ask?
Not for sale.
You give me bouquets,
Bring me to buffets,
Your gifts are sapphires,
And your love on fire.
Then some chocolate
As we're awed by the Golden gate,
And you made me wear pearls
to match my pretty curls.
How much is my love?
Must you ask?
Not for sale.
I care not about your money,
Your wealth, or your fame.
I care not about these things.
Flattery is not my game.
My love is not for sale.
Nor for rent, nor for exchange.
My love is free
To anyone who'll freely love me.
How much is my love?
You ask me.
A penny of kisses to a dollar of love.
