I know the desert can't hold all the love that I feel in my heart for you If I could spread it out across the sea, I know my love would cork it up Ain't that a lot of love for one heart to hold If the bees only knew how sweet you are baby They would seal up their honeycomb If the birds could hear how sweet your voice is They would tighten up the song Ain't that a lot of love for one heart to hold Your lips are so sweet, honey you're my every need You got a smile so rare A love like yours I just can't compare Ain't that a lot of love for one heart to hold Ain't that a lot of love for one heart to hold If the cook in the kitchen had a touch as hot as yours They wouldn't need a fire I can't think of a word that describes you better Than the sight of her
