When Love Is A Many Splendored Thing

And why is it so?

Love is a many splendored thing
It’s the April rose
That only grows in the early spring
Love is nature’s way of giving
A reason to be living
The golden crown that makes a man a king

Once on a high and windy hill
In the morning mist
Two lovers kissed
And the world stood still
Then your fingers touched
My silent heart and taught it how to sing
Yes, true love’s
A many splendoured thing

Yes, true love’s
A many splendoured thing

But when do we know its true love?

Look into my eyes – you will see
What you mean to me
Search your heart – search your soul
And when you find me there you’ll search no more

Don’t tell me it’s not worth tryin’ for
You can’t tell me it’s not worth dyin’ for
You know it’s true
Everything I do – I do it for you

Look into your heart – you will find
There’s nothin’ there to hide
Take me as I am – take my life
I would give it all – I would sacrifice

You know it’s true
Everything I do – I do it for you

And what is the epitomy of true love?

And all of this happens because both loves are waiting
Waiting for one child
Girl, Boy, like whom, no-one knows
But a child that will grow up and turn tears to laughter
Hate to love, war to peace and everyone to everyone’s neighbor
And misery and suffering will be words to be forgotten, forever

This comes to pass when a child is born
