I Only Want My Love To Grow In You

It takes a little sunshine

It takes a little rain

It takes a little laughter

It takes a little pain

But I can take the heartaches

I only want my love to grow in you.

It takes a little kindness

It takes a little tears

It takes some understanding

To last so many years

But I can take the changes

I only want my love to grow in you.

I'll hang in on you

While you hang out on me

I know you have your reasons

For needing to be free

Why don't we talk it over

And find out where we stand

In my old-fashioned way

I'll always lend a helping hand.

It takes the joy of knowing

That even if we're poor

We somehow turn out richer

Than we ever were before

Now I don't need much money

I only want my love to grow in you.
