If I can find a loveliness
in diamonds in the snow
If I can hear a symphony
wherever tree-tops blow
And if I'm dressed in cloth of gold
while standing in the sun
Should that not be quite wealth enough
for me, or anyone?
If I can find a palace here
within my rooms
If warm spice cake and apple pie
are rarest of perfumes
And best of all my husband is
a prince in blue jeans
Am I a fool to be content
with simple things like these?
