Trees, Leaves, Clouds, And Sea.

If love were leaves, I'd give you a tree,
then I'd build a forest for you.
If kisses were raindrops, I'd give you a sea,
and I'd give you the clouds for the rain to fall.

If looks were flowers I'd give you a bouquet,
but I'd would give one to you anyway.
If brains were gears I'd give you a clock,
so I could remind you that I'd always love you.

Your lips are red, like my heart that fell for you.
Your hands are soft like the petal of roses.
I walked near you, and caught your flu,
you make me smile even if I'm blue.

When time has aged us and we are old and grey,
My love for you will always stay.
