How much do I owe you said the husband to the wife
For standing beside me through the hard years of my life
Shall I bring you diamonds, shall I bring you furs
Say the word and it's yours, and the wife said
(chorus)
I won't take less than your love, sweet love
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)
(Chorus)
I won't take less than your love, sweet love
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
(chorus)
I won't take less than your love, sweet love
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
