Real Everyday Love

If you can love a cat

You can love a woman

Is that so hard

to understand

If you can love a dog

You can love a man

Just that simple

Curve of hand

It's all in the touch

And how a heart respects

Reaching out affection

And how the voice inflects

It's not the thought

You think that counts

It's the daily act

In tall amounts
