"How much do I owe you," said the husband to his wife,
"For standing beside me through the hard years of my life?
Shall I bring you diamonds, shall I buy you furs?
Say the word and it's yours!"

And his wife said: "I won't take less, than your love, sweet love.
No, I won't take less, than your love.
All the riches of the world could never be enough
And I won't take less, than your love."

"How much do I owe you," to the mother said the son
"For all, that you have taught me in the days, that I was young?
Shall I bring expensive blankets to cast upon your bed
And a pillow for to rest your weary head?"

And the mother said: "I won't take less, than your love, sweet love.
No, I won't take less, than your love.
All the comforts of the world could never be enough
And I won't take less, than your love."

"How much do I owe you," said the man to his Lord
"For giving me this day and every day that's gone before?
Shall I build a temple, shall I make a sacrifice?
Tell me, Lord and I will pay the price."

And the Lord said: "I won't take less, than your love, sweet love.
No, I won't take less, than your love.
All the treasures of the world could never be enough
And I won't take less, than your love."

"No, I won't take less than your love."
