“You Are Love” LYRICS

Ravenal:
Once a wand’ring ne’er-do-well,
Just a vagrant roving fellow,
I went my way.
Life was just a joke to tell,
Like a lonely Punchinello,
My role was gay.

But I knew the joke was aimless,
Time went on, I liked the game less,
For, you see,
Somewhere lurked a spark divine
And I kept wond’ring whether mine
Would come to me.

Then my fortune turned and I found you.
Here you are, with my arms around you.
You will never know what you’ve meant to me.

Magnolia:
You’re the prize that heaven has sent to me.

Ravenal:
Here’s a bright and beautiful world, all new,
Wrapped up in you.

You are love,
Here in my arms
Where you belong.
And here you will stay;
I’ll not let you away—
I want day after day
With you.

You are spring,
Bud of romance unfurled;
You taught me to see
One truth forever true.

You are love,
Wonder of all the world.
Where you go with me,
Heaven will always be.

Magnolia:
You are love,
Here in my arms.
Where you belong,
And here you will stay;
I’ll not let you away—
I want day after day
With you.

You are spring,
Bud of romance unfurled;
You taught me to see
One truth forever true—

Both:
You are love,
Wonder of all the world.
Where you go with me,
Heaven will always be.
