Every single time the phone rings
I hope that it’s you on the line
Your voice sends a thrill
It’s confounding me still
how you came to be mine

When you walk through that door
at five in the evening
unwearied by a wearisome day
I play like i’m cool
not some star-struck fool
and never once do I say

I don’t search the skies for heaven
Oh your eyes are a more brilliant blue
And the gold in the earth
oh to me it ain’t worth
half the treasure that I’ve found in you

Virginia is a jewel in the spring
She’s too bright and green
for any king’s crown
So bloom all you redbud and branches
29 dances and leads south of town

I don’t search the skies for heaven
Oh your eyes, honey your eyes are blue
And the gold in the earth
oh to me it ain’t worth
half the treasure that I’ve found in you
