The Only Thing I Want
Some are charmed by silver, others are charmed by gold.
Some want to collect money for the sake of the gathering itself.
I don't care about silver, I don't like gold,
and I don't want money just for money's sake.
No, you are the only thing I want.
No success in the world, no moment of fame,
could give me joy like a kiss from your mouth.
All the treasures on earth, if they were in my hand,
would lose their value without you in my arms.
Because you are the only thing I want.
May I always show that I love you.
May I always be there to help you.
May I never forget what you give to me.
May I never forget to tell you
that you are the only thing I want.
