Oh, the glory of true love
Is a wild and precious thing
It don't grow on old magnolias

Or only blossom in the spring

No, the glory of true love

Is it will last your whole life through
Never will go out of fashion
Always will look good on you


You can climb the highest mountain
Touch the moon and stars above

But old faithful's just a fountain
Compared to the glory of true love


Long before I met you, darlin'
Lord, I thought I had it all
I could have my lunch in London

And my dinner in St. Paul

I got some friends in Albuquerque

Where the governor calls me "Gov"
You can give 'em all to goodwill
For the glory of true love


You can climb the highest mountain
Touch the moon and stars above

But old faithful's just a fountain
Compared to the glory of true love


Glory, glory, glory, glory
You can't never get enough
Time alone will tell the story

Of the glory of true love

Glory, glory, glory, glory

You can't never get enough
Time alone will tell the story
Of the glory of true love
