The Greatest Love Story

The greatest love story ever told
Is right here in my heart
It isn't fancy with fancy words
It's sweet like the song of a lark

Material things are not important
To prove the depth my love
Just holding your body close to mine
A warmth that fits like a glove

Many words have since been written
About how true love endures
Words expressing inner feelings
Feelings intense and pure

Life on earth is a fleeting thing
We're here next moment we're gone
Love until your very last breath
Too soon you'll pass the baton

My heart sings with the joys of love
Words flow out like a river
It's the greatest love story ever told
It makes my eager heart quiver

The greatest love story ever told
Is right here in my heart
