Sweet And Lovely

There's sweetness in the call of the woodland dove

As his love song echoes through the trees

There's sweetness in the rose with it's symbol of love

Floating on a summer breeze

But nothing can compare to the sweetness of

The one and only one I love

Sweet and lovely, sweeter than the roses in May

Sweet and lovely, heaven must have sent her my way

Skies above me never were as blue as her eyes

And she loves me, who would want a sweeter surprise?

When she nestles in my arms so tenderly

There's a thrill that words cannot express

In my heart a song of love is taunting me

Melody, haunting me

Sweet and lovely, sweeter than the roses in May

And she loves me, there is nothing more I can say

Sweet and lovely, sweeter than the roses in May

And she loves me

There is nothing more I can say
