How little I care for rubies and pearls Or the sparkle of a diamond ring, But when a man speaks tender words of love, These are the jewels that make my heart sing!
No matter the obstacles in my path -- Be they copious as stars above me; All I ask is that at my journey's end There'll be a man waiting to love me
Now I've heard women say in angry tones When with their lover they have just tiffed: "He thinks he's special, God's gift to women!" Well, I think of each man as a gift
His lips, his arms, every part of a man Are all treasures that women adore; What else do we need on a stormy night, Or when winter's winds howl at the door?
Yes, I see each man as a precious gift. (Perhaps I'm being foolish) ..... yet still I know of nothing more divine than love, And a man's touch - an undefined thrill
With proper intent, I love every man! (Forgive me if I seem indiscreet) But God's wisdom shines in His grand design--- Without each other, we're incomplete
And when lonely nights prove unbearable, We then see the glory of His plan: Man will rush toward woman with arms outstretched ....... For woman is also God's gift to man!
