Tell me lies of sunshine

And roses that will bloom.

Tell me tales of romance

And warmth that fills a room.

Show me signs of friendship

And stars that twinkle bright.

Show me rainbow colors

And silver moons at night.

Give me lines of wisdom

And skies so blue above.

Give me all your speeches,

But spare me words of love.

copr. Trinka Powers
