Classic Poem

VERSE 1 HE :

I'm not a poet,
How well I know it,
I've never been a raver.
But when I speak of you
I rave a bit, it's true.
I'm wild about you,
I'm lost without you.
You give my life its flavor,
What sugar does for tea,
That's what you do for me.

REFRAIN 1

You're the cream in my coffee,
You're the salt in my stew,
You will always be
My necessity,
I'd be lost without you.
You're the starch in my collar,
You're the lace in my shoe,
You will always be
My necessity,
I'd be lost without you.
1. Most men tell lovetales
And each phrase dovetails;
You've heard each known way.
This way is my own way.
You're the sail of my loveboat,
You're the captain and crew.
You will always be
My necessity,
I'd be lost without you.

VERSE 2 SHE :

You have a great way,
An up-to-date way,
Of telling me you love me.
It gives me such a thrill,
I know it always will.
My head is turning,
And just from learning
Your estimation of me.
And as for you, I'll say,
" I feel the self-same way. "

REPEAT REFRAIN

2. You give life savor,
Bring out its flavor,
So this is clear, dear,
You're my Worcestershire, dear.
