"How much do I owe you?" said the husband to his wife
"For standing beside me through the hard years of my life
Shall I bring you diamonds, shall I buy you furs?
Say the word and it's yours"
And his wife said: "I won't take less than your love, sweet love
No, I won't take less than your love
All the riches of the world could never be enough
And I won't take less than your love"
"How much do I owe you?" to the mother said the son
"For all that you have taught me in the days that I was young
Shall I bring expensive blankets to cast upon your bed?
And a pillow for to rest your weary head"
And the mother said: "I won't take less than your love, sweet love
No, I won't take less than your love
All the comforts of the world could never be enough
And I won't take less than your love."
"How much do I owe you?" said the man to his Lord
"For giving me this day and every day that's gone before
Shall I build a temple, shall I make a sacrifice?
Tell me Lord and I will pay the price"
And the Lord said: "I won't take less than your love, sweet love
No, I won't take less than your love.
All the treasures of the world could never be enough
And I won't take less than your love"
"I won't take less than your love, sweet love
No, I won't take less than your love
All the treasures of the world could never be enough
And I won't take less than your love
No, I won't take less than your love"
