It takes seconds to say it
Those three little words
But when they do
Their hearts sing like birds
It takes minutes to realise
Those words mean so much
But when they do
Begins the simplest touch
It can take hours to make it
Put those words into pleasure
But when they do
There's a moment to treasure
It takes days to get there
Those seeds of attraction
But when they do
There's a chemical reaction
It can take weeks to realise
That life has begun
But when they do
The feelings second to none
It takes months to grow
A baby inside
But when they do
That's the miracle of life
It takes years to nurture
The child of our time
But when they do
A mountain they've climbed
It takes decades to start
The cycle again
But when they do
Begins a family chain
