(Kipp Lennon, Michael Lennon, Mark Lennon & John Vester)

So long have I known you

It's hard to find

New ways to say I love you

And thank you for being mine

Well, here goes another try

Diamonds and jewels, darling

Silver and gold

These things are rare, darling

Or so we are often told

But they can be bought and sold

And what you have it can't be found

As you window shop downtown

Nobody can own

What is yours and yours alone

If only you could see yourself

For the treasure that you are

Then you would know

That you are a precious stone

Lives have been spent searching

For one so true

But no fame and no fortune

Could ever come close to you

(Chorus)

Brilliance and radiance

Deepness and strength

Facets of you I have come to know

A priceless appraisal for you

A precious stone and you alone beautiful stone

Precious stone

(Chorus)
