Love is the hand of a stranger
a friend who may well become more
and we find such one anywhere now
in a party or on a dance floor

Love is the key to all things sister
without true love it will die
so please be sure the one you meet
is honest and will not lie

For there is beauty unrivalled
in the form of someone like this
truth is such an essential
we all need someone like this

Then look for kindness inside them
its a bounty so rich and good
don't go by looks on its on girl
for woodworm inhabits the wood

Love kindness and tenderness
truth in its beauty to shine
in a world like this be sure to find
someone who really is fine

Don't go by outward appearance
not everything's as it seems
but just take your time
pursue your dreams

And hopefully one day you will see
that there is someone
who is all the above
sincere but with fun.

Such a great description and what to
look for. Love should be honest and
real or else becomes hollow.
