If you ask me what Love is
I could answer with a thousand beautiful words
and still flounder upon them.

If you ask me what Love is
I could answer with a kiss
so tender that even the stars would sigh.

If you ask me what Love is
I could build for you a garden filled with light
and laughter, but still shadows would remain.

If you ask me what Love is
I could raise up a great nation
and make you it's queen.

I know deep in my heart that
when you ask me what Love is
I will not answer.
For if you do not already know
no answer on earth will be enough to prove
what it is I've been doing all along.
