The Nature of My Love

For years I’ve loved the essence of your beauty

It’s as lovely as the scents in roses of a bouquet

Like the curves of those flowers you’re more than just a cutie

But like baby turtles who hatch – from me you go astray

And they always say that there’s tons of fish in the sea

But none whose scales shine like yours in a ray of harmony

You’re the source of my inspiration that lightens up all my days

Like the sun that rises, you keep up my goals and energy

And when it sets, I dream of your eyes in the stars where I lay

But the most I admire is your innocence and honesty

Like a doe, or koala in his tree eating eucalyptus leaves

Or the truth in the wise owl in everything he sees



That’s just the nature of my love

And it soars like a dove

That’s just the nature of my love

And you’re my natural love



I’m like the roots in the ground that start all our plant life

Gotta dig deep before they break my strength for you

And I wanna be that life-line that supports you as my wife

It’s about soul attraction in love that’s pure and true

Not just puppy love but faithful like a dog

I’ll be by your side ‘cause it’s love is unconditional

I can be protective like a lion and guide you through the fog

Be the king of your jungle when your times are critical

I’d hunt through cold and icy land and water

Swim like the penguins for food to keep you nourished

I’d travel through the deserts, even if it got hotter

Just to find a secluded oasis for you to forever cherish



That’s just the nature of my love

And it soars like a dove

That’s just the nature of my love

And you’re my natural love



All throughout the years, we’ve made each other smile

Like snow on a school day through the eyes of a child

With many things in common, our chats will always churn

Birds and fish share interests, they both enjoy the worms

Like peas in a pod, or turtle doves we go together

We can help each other, and be each others’ guides

Like fruits and vegetables that make our health better

We all have highs and lows, as the ocean with its tides

Help one another when our days are feeling down

Or enjoy ourselves when our times together are great

We could grow old together, while the Earth goes round

Our lives could be fun or lazy, like bears who hibernate



That’s just the nature of my love

And it soars like a dove

That’s just the nature of my love

And you’re my natural love
