I'll tell it rather simply;

I'll say it plain and true-

A single thing is all I want

And all I want is you.

There are no other riches,

No treasures or possessions

That ever could compare with you,

My fondest of obsessions.

You are the very air I breathe,

The ration that sustains me.

You're all my thoughts tied up as one,

The laugh that entertains me.

You're all that life need ever give,

The maximum that's due.

If I could ask for anything,

I'd only ask for you.
