It's Impossible - December 1970
 
What Love Is Made Of  
 
Jingle bells, toy balloons, 
lollipops and roller coaster rides,
Love is made of jellybeans, butterflies, 
ponytails and moonlit mountain sides,
Love is made of Christmas trees, rainy days, 
playin' hooky and a circus on parade,
Feelin' all this from just one kiss, 
I found what love is made of . . .
 
Little girls, little boys, 
little children must grow up one day,
Just as I did here tonight, in your arms, 
when we kissed, at last I knew,
What love is really made of, 
love is you!
 
( Love is made of bubble gum, trolley cars, 
rocking horses and a teddy bear,
Love is made of holly hocks, telephones, 
and a buggy ride to anywhere,
Love is made of . . . )
 
. . . valentines, daffodils, roman candles, 
and a penny lemonade,
Feelin' all this from just one kiss, 
I found what love is made of . . . ( Love is made of . . . )
 
Little girls, little boys, 
little children must grow up one day,
Just as I did here tonight, in your arms, 
when we kissed, at last I knew,
What love is really made of, 
love is you!
 
Love is you . . .
 
Jingle bells, toy balloons, 
lollipops and roller coaster rides,
Love is made of jellybeans, butterflies, 
ponytails and moonlit mountain sides . . . ( fade out )
