One little moment in the dark
One little kiss from you
One little breeze to fan the spark
And love began anew

I thought your love had lost its charms
I thought I'd try another's arms
I find your love more beautiful than ever

I thought your kiss had lost its thrill
But now I know it never will
I find your kiss more beautiful than ever

Sweetheart, I didn't think your caress
Brought the happiness that I felt was mine
Now in that same old caress
Humbly I confess, it's a thing divine

Although I said that we were through
I know I'm still in love with you
I find your love more beautiful than ever

I didn't think your caress
Brought the happiness that I felt was mine
Now in that same old caress
Humbly I confess, it's a thing divine

I find your love more beautiful than ever
