the way you are
if eyes were made of diamonds
yours would be the richest mines
and if smiles were made of sparkels
yours would be fireworks in the sky
and if compassion was made of rainbows
then yours would be true blue
if god took all that was beautiful
combined them all as one
he still wouldnt have any thing
unless he added you before he was done
