Only love is the answer

Royston 1946 (Reading)



Greater love has no man
than the love I have for you.
For you're such a lovely woman
to love me as you do.

My dear I’m lost in wonder
as I gaze upon your face,
and my heart grows even fonder
of your beauty and your grace.

Oh how can I resist you,
my dear and wonderful wife,
So I close my eyes and kiss you.
You’re darling of my life.

Only love is the answer.
Only love is the way.
I'm your lover and romancer,
throughout each and every day.
