Love Is a Simple Thing Lyrics

Intro Verse:
Poets write fancy things about love,
But they don't have no call;
Love is like birth or death or taxes --
Love just is, that's all.
Melody:
Love is a simple thing, love is a silver ring,
Shiny as a ribbon bow, soft as a quiet snow,
Love is a nursery rhyme, old as the tick of time.
Love is so many things, bright as an angel's wings,
Gentle as the morning light, long as a winter night,
/9/ im
Love makes an old heart sing,
And it fills ev'ry empty space, love is a warming place,
Love is a sim - ple thing.
Love is a simple thing, love is a magic ring,
Much more fun than mistletoe, gay as a puppet show,
Love is the thunder and rain, swift as a soaring plane,
Love is a summer moon, gay as a big balloon,
Young as a calliope, wild as a storm at sea,
/9/ im
Love is a touch of spring,
It's as sweet as a first embrace, love is a special place,
Love is a sim - ple thing.
