Every time I think that I'm the only one who's lonely Someone calls on me And every now and then I spend my time in rhyme and verse And curse those faults in me
And then along comes Mary And does she want to give me kicks , and be my steady chick And give me pick of memories Or maybe rather gather tales of all the fails and tribulations No one ever sees
When we met I was sure out to lunch Now my empty cup tastes as sweet as the punch
When vague desire is the fire in the eyes of chicks Whose sickness is the games they play And when the masquerade is played and neighbor folks make jokes As who is most to blame today
And then along comes Mary And does she want to set them free, and let them see reality From where she got her name And will they struggle much when told that such a tender touch as hers Will make them not the same
When we met I was sure out to lunch Now my empty cup tastes as sweet as the punch
And when the morning of the warning's passed, the gassed And flaccid kids are flung across the stars The psychodramas and the traumas gone The songs are left unsung and hung upon the scars
And then along comes Mary And does she want to see the stains, the dead remains of all the pains She left the night before Or will their waking eyes reflect the lies, and make them Realize their urgent cry for sight no more
When we met I was sure out to lunch Now my empty cup tastes as sweet as the punch
Cherish is the word I use to describe All the feeling that I have hiding here for your inside You don't know how many times I've wished that I had told you You don't know how many times I've wished that I could hold you You don't know how many times I've wished that I could mold you Into someone who could cherish me as much as I cherish you
Perish is the word that more than applies To the hope in my heart each time I realize That I am not gonna be the one to share your dreams That I am not gonna be the one to share your schemes That I am not gonna be the one to share what seems to be The life that you could cherish as much as I do yours
Oh, I'm beginning to think that man has never found The words that could make you want me That have the right amount of letters, just the right sound That could make you hear, make you see That you are driving me out of my mind
Oh, I could say I need you, but then you'd realize That I want you, just like a thousand other guys Who'd say they loved you with all the rest of their lies When all they wanted was to touch your face, your hands And gaze into your eyes
Cherish is the word I use to describe All the feeling that I have hiding here for you inside You don't know how many times I've wished that I had told you You don't know how many times I've wished that I could hold you You don't know how many times I've wished that I could mold you Into someone who could cherish me as much as I cherish you And I do cherish you And I do cherish you Cherish is the word

In my most secure moments I still can't believe I'm spending those moments with you And the ground I am walking, the air that I breathe Are shared at those moments with you
You love for real You show the feel Of everything that touches you
In the songs I've been singing quite often a phrase Comes close to the feeling of you But I never suspected that one of those days The wish of the song would come true
You love for real You show the feel Of everything that touches you
You are of gracefulness You are of happiness You are what I would guess to be most like What I've been singing of
Love, love, love
In the songs I've been singing quite often a phrase Comes close to the feeling of you But I never suspected that one of those days The wish of the song would come true
You love for real You show the feel Of everything that touches you
Love, love, love, love Everything is love Love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love Everything is love Love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love Everything is love Love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love
