There's 'I love you' tossed out breezily
By a Waspish fellow to his Dame
There's 'I love you' issued wheezily
By a dying man that sounds the same
There's 'I love you' spoken rapidly
Over the phone by a kid to his Mom
There's 'I love you' you hide from your friends
So they won't think you a pom
But there's really just one 'I love you'
As far as I'm concerned
The only one that's fast and true
On which the whole World turns
That's the one that must be said
Or your beating heart will burst
That's the one that bleeds Code Red
That jumps out unrehearsed.
