Priceless


You can’t put a price on the lone star that twinkles
In twilight's dusty blue
Or the hush of midnight in budding April
As spring-time bids winter adieu
You can’t put a price on the moon in full glory
Reigning supreme up above
You can’t put a price on one- in- the- morning
And you can’t put a price on love

There’s no way to measure the value of giving
Whether it’s little or much
I’d rather be dead than too busy living
To offer a kind, gentle touch
You can’t put a price on the laughter of children
Or a sweet brand-new baby face
These are the priceless gifts from heaven
No money could ever replace

You can’t put a price on the pleasure of friendship
Or in the pain it can hold
To love til it hurts is the rarest of blessings
That cannot be equaled in gold
You can’t put a price on the kiss of a memory
Or the sigh of a cloud far above
You can’t put a price on the song of a heart-beat
For you can’t put a price on love
