If I take a pen or pencil and write lovely words upon paper.
Because I couldn't afford you a card.
It's the thought that count.
Be its your birthday.
Be it any holiday.

Sure others will offer their opinions.
And you might buy into them.
But think, yes truly think about my heart.
Yes, my sincere heart.
And you come to the conclusion, it's the thought that count.

Others purchase things of the moment to appease their sweetheart.
And accomplish their goals in the process.
I create words on the spot for you.
To prove, just how much I do love you?
