love is the sweetest thing

love is the sweetest thing

what else on earth could ever bring

such happiness to everything

as love's old story?

love is the strangest thing

no song of birds upon the wing

shall in our hearts more sweetly sing

than love's old story

whate'er our hearts may desire

whatever fate may send

this is the tale that never will tire

this is the song without end

love is the greatest thing

the oldest yet the latest thing

i only hope that fate may bring

love's story to you

love is the sweetest thing
