TRUE LOVE

Is true love some fleeting thought?
Some romantic thing?
No, true love goes on for ever,
A very precious thing.


Is true love over with one quarrel
When tempers rise and flair?
No, True love is tried and tested
And handled with great care.


Is true love there in happy moments
And gone when things are sad?
No, True love is there beside you
Through the good times and the bad.


Is true love always taking
And getting your own way?
No, True love puts the other first
Each and every day.


So I know I found my true love
So many years ago,
And I'll always love you dearly
More than you will ever know.
