Three Little Words

(album: My Woman, My Woman, My Wife - 1970)

We talked about the weather
And we talked about the kids
We mentioned the good times we've had
The events of the day in their glorious array
Hardly a moment's been bad

There were three little words
I was waiting to hear
I love you, I love you, my dear
Reassuring my heart that I held the best part
Of your heart with it's message so clear

I love you, I love you, my dear
Just three little words I was waiting to hear
I love you, I love you, my dear
You spoke these three words I was waiting to hear

Your eyes sparkled with laughter
When you saw I was after
These three little words, I love you
You didn't disappoint me
Though you teased me a bit
You came through with these words, I love you

I love you, I love you, my dear
You spoke these three words I was waiting to hear
I love you, I love you, my dear
Three little words I was waiting to hear
