   I think they meant it, when they said you can't buy love; but I know you can rent it,

   A new lease you are my love.  One life--be my life.

     F                  C                         Bb  C
I've longed to discover something as true as this is

          Bb                          C
So with a thousand sweet kisses                I'll cover you
                           (If you're cold and your lonely)

       Bb                           C
With a thousand sweet kisses                I'll cover you
                        (You've got one nickel only)

       Bb                            C
With a thousand sweet kisses                I'll cover you
                        (When you're worn out and tired)

       Bb                          C
With a thousand sweet kisses                I'll cover you
                        (When your heart has expired)


Eb C#               F
Oh lover I'll cover you
Oh lover I'll cover you
