Con carino

If these are

The last words

Then let them be said.

One smile is worth

One thousand tears

And

Two ears are worth

Two thousand words

And

One heart

Plus

One heart

Is

Worth two souls' tears,

Two souls' words, and

(Most of all) two souls' breath

For two hearts beating.

And

My heart beats

To care

For your heart

As two souls whisper,

"Con carino. . . we live

A l'amour. . . we breathe

With love. . . we sing."
