A public domain folk love song originally written in 1972, with lyrics slightly changed in the 1990s.
“Perhaps
It's your spirit
Perhaps
It's your eyes
Perhaps
It's your passion
But I'm in love with you.
Perhaps
It's your beauty
Perhaps
It's your hair
Perhaps
It's your strength
But I'm in love with you.
Like the sun that's shining
Like a light that does glow
Like the people revolting
Like a flower that blooms.
Perhaps
It's your smile
Perhaps
It's your wit
Perhaps
It's your wisdom
But I'm in love with you.
Perhaps
It's your daring
Perhaps
It's your cause
Perhaps
It's your toughness
But I'm in love with you.
Like a slave escaping
Like a released prisoner
Like a youthful dreamer
Like a twinkling star.
Perhaps
When you're lonely
You'll come visit me
Perhaps
I am weary
But I'm in love with you
Perhaps
You'll remember
The years long ago
Perhaps
You'll discover
That I'm in love with you.
Like a joyful vision
Like a rainbow across the sky
Like two children playing
Like a pleasure that never dies.
Yes, perhaps
It's your spirit
Perhaps
It's your eyes
Perhaps
It's your passion
But I'm in love with you.”
