All that glitters is not gold
All that sparkles is not diamonds
Not all the red in the world
comes from rubys
And any green you see
surely is not an emerald
But you make my eyes sparkle
You light up my soul
like a Christmas tree
Why can't you see
You're the gem of my life
Colored stones may be pretty
Diamonds, a girls best friend
But if I had a choice
I'd want you hanging 'round my neck
You are more to me
than all the jewels in the world
I'd destroy the crown jewels
if it meant I would be your girl
But I can't give you the Hope Diamond
I can only give you me
