Love - Charles Mwewa

        I long, long                              truly for you
    I miss you,                                     and it is true
 Oh, come                                              be my love
Be mine                                                        to have
 I love you                                                 yes, I do
   My words                                        are too few
     You’re my lif                            my very best
       You have no flaws in you, Oh my dearest
         Your heart, O my lover, is of pure gold
          You’re lovely, so tenderly to behold
            And you shine, brightly like a star
             Yes, truly, so beautiful you are
               Oh, my Darling, you’re fair
                   Indeed,  Oh, how rare
                     You’re on my mind
                       You’re very kind
                         My very treat
                          Cute, sweet
                             Of rest
                              Best!
                                ❤
